Why should you use a convex lens of large radius of curvature in performing newtons ring experiment?

Radius of rings is directly proportional to the square root of the radius of curvature. Thin lens would have larger radius of curvature and hence the option

2)The rings observed have a large diameter and hence error in the measurement of their diameter is minimised.

What is the use of the newton's rings?
newtons ring is formed due to the consequtive circle of different radius of bright and dark in which the centre is dark
How can we get a bright center in newton's ring experiment?
when dust particles come in contect of plano convex lence.
What kind of lens does a projector use?
projector have concave or convex
Is a fish-eye lens convex?
Yes. Because convex lens produce real image.. so Fish eye has convex lens
A magnifying glass is also called what?
The answer is both convex and converging
What is the use of the newton's rings?
newtons ring is formed due to the consequtive circle of different radius of bright and dark in which the centre is dark
The curvature of an eye's convex lens is change by?
Muceles
What are the five components fused called?
Sacral Curvature (convex)
Has a convex lateral surface called greater curvature and a concave medial surface called lesser curvature?
The stomach has a greater and lesser curvature. The greater curvature is the more lateral of the two.
How do you derive relation between focal length and radius of curvature of convex mirror?
the curvature mirror the emage of the mirror is virtual
The relation between focal length and radius of curvature of spherical mirror is?
The focal length of a convex mirror is half of its radius of curvature.
What is difference between curvature and radius of curvature?
Curvature is a general term to describe a graph. Like, concave or convex. Radius of curvature is more exact. If the curve in a 'small' section is allow to continue with the same curvature it would form a circle. that PRETEND circle would have an exact radius. That is the radius of curvature.
Examples of concave and convex mirrors?
Convex means rounded or curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere. Also called as fish eye or diverging mirror. The mirror coating of the concave mirror is on the outside of the spherical surface. In concave mirrors, the center of curvature and the reflecting surface fall on the same side of the mirror.
What is the ratio of focal length of a spherical mirror to its radius curvature?
The focal point of a convex mirror lies on the same side as the centre of curvature and is at a distance of half the radius of curvature from the optical centre.
An air plane can fly because there is blank on its wings?
"blank on" = greater convex curvature on the upper surface of
Which regions of the vertebral column normally retain an posteriorly convex curvature in the adult?
The Lumbar region of the spine.
What architectural term refers to a molding of double curvature that is concave at one and convex at the other?
cavetto
