To my understanding of psychology, the lens convexity in distant vision is increased in order to better take in the visual stimuli. To focus visual stimuli on the fovea (focus point) of the retina, the lens undergoes a process of adjusting called "accommodation," and it becomes more convex to ensure that distant objects reach the retina. A failure to properly accommodate leads to nearsightedness (faraway objects falling short of retina) or farsightedness (nearby objects falling past retina)

What is formula for concave lens?

The formula for a concave lens is the same as for a convex lens, which is given by the lens formula: 1/f = 1/v + 1/u, where f is the focal length of the lens, v is the image distance, and u is the object distance. For a concave lens, the focal length is considered negative.


What is the standard focal lenght of a concave lens?

The standard focal length of a concave lens is negative, as it diverges light. This focal length is typically measured in millimeters and represents the distance from the lens to the focal point where parallel light rays converge after passing through the lens.


What The focal distance of a convex lens is always?

The focal distance of a convex lens is always positive. It is the distance between the lens and the focal point when light rays are parallel and converge after passing through the lens.


Does a concave lens form a real or virtual image?

A concave lens forms a virtual image of an object located at a distance greater than the focal length of the lens. The image is always upright and reduced in size compared to the object.


Length of a lens is the distance from the center of the lens to its principal focus?

It is called the focal length. It is equal to 1/2 times r, and is positive on concave mirrors and negative on convex mirrors.


How does the curvature of a concave lens affect the location of the focal point?

In a concave lens, the focal point is located on the same side as the incoming light rays. A more curved concave lens will have a shorter focal length, bringing the focal point closer to the lens surface.


Why focal length of convex lens is easier to find than a concave lense?

The focal length of a convex lens is easier to find than a concave lens because for a convex lens, the focal length is positive and is measured from the lens to the focal point. In contrast, for a concave lens, the focal length is negative and the rays of light are diverged. This makes it more challenging to find the focal point accurately.


Does a concave lens always produce a virtual image?

No, a concave lens can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object location relative to the lens. If the object is located within the focal point of the concave lens, a virtual image will be produced. If the object is located beyond the focal point, a real image will be formed.


What does a virtual image of a object look like through a concave lens?

A virtual image of an object through a concave lens is always upright, reduced in size, and appears on the same side of the lens as the object. Its location depends on the distance of the object from the lens and the focal length of the lens.


A concave lens is kept in contact with convex lens of focal length 20cm the combination works as a converging lens of focal length 100cmcalculate the power of concave lens?

i think it is -0.06m i.e. 6cm


What can you say about images formed by a concave lens?

Images formed by a concave lens are always virtual, upright, and reduced in size. The image distance is negative and the focal length is also negative. These images are formed by diverging light rays and cannot be projected onto a screen.


What is the medical application of the focal length of concave lens?
