An air bubble in water will act like concave or convex lens?

YES. It will act as a convex lens.


When does a concave lens act as convex lens?

A convex lens acts as concave lens when it is kept in a medium whose optical density is higher than the lens itself. And the vice-verse is also true .i.e, a concave lens can act as convex lens too .

Can a convex mirror act as concave mirror?

If this mirror is reflective on both sides, then it can be both concave and convex. Otherwise, the two cannot act like one another.

Are water bubbles act like convex lens?

I think the bubble will act as a flat glass slab as refraction will always occur at two surfaces which are parallel.


Can a drop of water be used as a magnifier?

Yes.Just pour it over a glass and it'd act like a convex lens.


What is the Nature of a convex lens immersed in a liquid with refractive index greater than of glass?

Usually a convex lens made up a material with higher refractive index would act as a converging device when kept in a medium having lower refractive index such as air. But when it is kept in a liquid as said with higher refractive index then convex lens would become as a concave lens. Now it would diverge the rays entering through it right from the liquid with higher refractive index.


How do light rays act when they pass through concave lens?

They spread out.


What kind of mirrors do the two surfaces of a spoon act as?

Concave on the inside part. Convex on the outer.


Is convex and concave mirrors also known as spherical mirrors?

Yes convex and concave mirrors are also known as spherical mirrors. If mercury coating is made on the convex side of the spherical then mirror is known as concave mirror. If mercury coating is made on the concave side the convex portion would reflect the light fallen so it is named as convex mirror. Actual just a small part of the sphere is taken out and this would act as the spherical mirror.
