n1/u +n2/v=(n2-n1)/r for first refraction by convex surface: u??, v=rn2/(n2-n1) for plane reflection: r is infinite,v'=-v for second refraction: 1.5/v' -1/v''=(1-1.5)/r 1/v''+1/v=1/f power=1/f
37) A plano-convex lens acts like a concave mirror of 28 cm focal length when its plane surface is silvered and like a concave mirror of 10 cm focal length when its curved surface is silvered. What is the refractive index of the material of the lens?

The curved silvered surface will behave as a concave lens of focal length fm=R/2=?22/2 =?11cm =?0.11m And hence PM=the power of mirror =?1/fM=?1/?0.11=1/0.11D Further as focal length of lens is 20 cm ie 0.2m its power is P2=1/f2P2 =1/20D Now as in image formation, light after passing through the lens will be reflected back by curved mirror through lens again . P=PL+PM+PL =2PL+PM P=2/0.2+1/0.11=210/11D So, focal length of equivalent mirror. F=?1/P=11/210m ?110/21cm ie silvered lens behaves as a concave mirror of focal length (110/21)cm So far object at a distance 10 cm in front of it. 1/V+1/?10=21/110 i,e V=?11cm The image will be 11 cm in front of silvered lens and will be real. Hence c is the correct answer.

The most commonly used formula in amateur astronomy is used to calculate the magnification of a telescope: magnification = focal length of telescope / focal length of eyepiece. Example: using a 10mm eyepiece in a telescope with a focal length of 1000mm results in a magnification of 100x (1000 / 10 = 100)
