Q.

Two convex lenses, each of focal length 40 cm, are filled at the ends of a tube and the tube is filled with water μ=43. A beam of parallel rays parallel to the axis of the tube, enters the tube through one end and emerges from the tube as a beam of parallel rays of same diameter as the incident beam. If refractive index of glass is 1.5, find the length l of the tube.

Detailed Solution

For each lens, if R be the radius of curvature of each convex surface, then 1f=2μg−1R⇒R=21.5−1×40 cm⇒R=40 cmIf x and y be the second focal length and first focal lengths of lenses 1 and 2 respectively, then x = y.For lens - 1, μ+x−1α=μg−1+R−μg−μ−R⇒μx=2μg−μ−1R⇒4/3x=2×1.5−43−140⇒x=80 cm∴ l=x+y=x+x=80+80cm=160 cm
