Detailed Solution

When the focal length is one metre, then the magnitude of the power of a lens is equal to its focal length.
The ability of a lens to diverge or converge the rays of light is called the power of the lens. It is defined as the reciprocal of the focal length of the lens.
P=1f
Therefore, when the lens's focal length is equal to one metre, the power of the lens is also one in magnitude.
