Detailed Solution

The power of the corrective lens required is +2 D.
Given,
Focal length f=50 cm
It is known that the power of a lens is the reciprocal of the focal length of the lens. Mathematically,
P=100f
Where f is the focal length of the lens in centimetres
On substituting the given values, we get the power as
P=10050
P=2 D
Hence, the power of the lens required is 2 D.
