Question #2
Convex lens in water: focal length:
A. Unchanged
B. Becomes negative
C. Increases
D. Decreases

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Lens maker: 1/f ∝ (n_rel - 1). In water, n_rel = n_glass/n_water ≈ 1.5/1.33 ≈ 1.13 < 1.5 (air). Smaller (n_rel-1) ⇒ larger f. Memory aid: 'Lens in denser medium: reduced power ⇒ longer focal length'. Optics application frequently tested in competitive exams.
