Q27.Two identical symmetric double convex lenses of focal length f are cut into two equal parts L1, L2 by AB plane and L3, L4 by XY plane as shown in figure respectively. The ratio of focal lengths of lenses L1 and L3 is (1) 1:1 (2) 1:2 (3) 1:4 (4) 2:1

What This Question Tests

The question assesses the knowledge of how the focal length of a lens changes when it is cut in different ways, specifically comparing the focal lengths of a plano-convex lens and a half-cut biconvex lens.

Concepts Tested
