Physics Revision Questions for Power of Lenses. The Human Eye
1. An optician prescribes spectacles to a patient with a combination of a converging lens of focal length 40 cm and diverging lens of focal length 25 cm. What is the power of these spectacles?
- 6.0 D
- -6.0 D
- 1.5 D
- -1.5 D
Correct Answer: D
2. A student wants to construct an optical system made by two identical converging lenses with focal lengths of 20 cm each. How far from each other must he place the lenses to obtain an optical power of -10 D for this system?
- 0.8 m
