Question:
medium
If a convex lens is placed in water, its focal length \dots
Show Hint
Greater surrounding refractive index means weaker bending of light by the lens, resulting in larger focal length.

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A):
Refractive index of glass is more than air.
Reason (R):
Optical density of a medium is directly related to its mass density.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

If sunlight is focused on a paper using a convex lens, it starts burning the paper in the shortest time when the lens is kept at 30 cm above the paper. If the radius of curvature of the lens is 60 cm, then the refractive index of the lens material is \( \frac{\alpha}{10} \). The value of \( \alpha \) is _______.
