1isn't this wat u wanted SANDIPAN [7]
If one face of a bi-convex lense with focal length f is silvered , what will be the new focal length ?
Also what if the lense was a plano convex lense??
the second part of the qsn was asked in wbjee..which i could not answer...[2]

1When one surface of a biconvex lens is silvered then in this situation , Two times refraction through lens and one time reflection occurs
So power of combination
P = PL+Pm+PL = 2PL+Pm
Pm=-1fm , fm=R2 , PL = 1fL (fL is in metre )
for plano convex lens
two cases may arise
CASE-I
If plane surface is silvered
let radius of curvature is R and μ be its refractive index
P = 2PL + Pm
PL = 1fL = (μ-1)\left[\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{-\infty } \right]
\Rightarrow P_{L} = \frac{(\mu -1)}{R}
PM = -1fm = -1∞ = 0
hence P = 2(μ-1)R , f = R2(μ-1)
CASE - II
if curved surface is silvered
P = 2PL+Pm
P_{L} = (\mu -1)\left[\frac{1}{\infty } -\frac{1}{-R}\right] = \frac{(\mu -1)}{R}
Pm = -1fm = -1-R/2 = 2R
hence P = 2μR and f = R2μ
11thanks Manmay....
thanks for giving both the cases..though only the first case was asked in Wbjee....
kudos....

1only first cassse was asked to bataya kyun nahin
Bohat type karna pada bekar main :P
but nevertheless if it helped u then its fine :)
11sry...but ya both of them helped me....thanks once again...
