Question

The focal length of a concave lens whose radius of curvature is 26 cm is ____ cm.

hintHint:

For a concave lensfocal length f= R/2

The correct answer is: 13


    The focal length of a concave lens whose radius of curvature is 26 cm is 13 cm.
    • The focal length of a concave lens is half of its radius of the curvature.
    • Focal length f= R/2
    • When the R is 26 cm, the focal length is 26/2= 13 cm.
