CASE STUDY 1

Cutting of lens Lens maker's formula is a formula correlating the

power P (or focal length) of
a lens to radii of curvature of the two surfaces of the lens and the
refractive index of lens material
with respect to its surroundings. The formula is expressed as

where n= refractive index of the material of lens with respect to

its surroundings (ordinarily air) and R, and R2 are the radii of
curvature of two surfaces of the lens. The relation is true under all
conditions but while applying it we should put values of P, f, R, and
R2, with their proper signs as per sign convention being followed by us.

Also lens changes its behavior in different media in which it is

placed
