Detailed Solution

focal length of a mirror does not depend on the medium but focal length of the lens depends on the medium in which it is used. Hence focal length of the mirror will not change but the focal length of the lens will change when placed in water.

Water is optically denser than air. Refractive index of water is more than that of air.
