A plano convex lens of focal length 120 cm has a convex surface of radius of curvature 50 cm.  The refractive index of the lens is

a
1.2 cm
b
1.6cm
c
1.4cm
d
1.5 cm

detailed solution

Correct option is C

1f=(μ−1)1R ⇒1120=(μ−1)150 ⇒512=μ−1                                                                                              μ=512+1=1712=1.4cm
