The given lens is broken into four parts and rearranged as shown. If the initial focal length is, then after rearrangement the equivalent focal length is-

Options:

f

f/2

f/4

4f

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

Cutting a lens in transverse direction halves their focal length i.e. f/2.

Using the formula of equivalent focal length, $ \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{f _{1}}+\frac{1}{f _{2}}+\frac{1}{f _{3}}+\frac{1}{f _{4}} $

We get equivalent focal length at f/2.
