To find the focal length of a lens, you can use the lens formula: 1/f 1/do 1/di, where f is the focal length, do is the object distance, and di is the image distance. Measure the object and image distances from the lens, then plug the values into the formula to calculate the focal length.

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.


How can we find focus of a lens?

Focus or focal length?


What is the lens focal length formula used to calculate the focal length of a camera lens?

The lens focal length formula used to calculate the focal length of a camera lens is: Focal Length (Distance between lens and image sensor) / (1 (Distance between lens and object) / (Distance between lens and 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 do you find the new focal length when the lence is put in to the water?

to find the new focal length when the lens is put into water it becomes the 4 times the focal length in air.


Does a diverging lens have a focal length?

Yes, a diverging lens does have a focal length. The focal length of a diverging lens is negative, as the light rays diverge after passing through the lens.


The distance from lens to focal point is called?

The distance from a lens to the focal point is called the focal length.


How do you find the power of a lens?

The power of a lens is 1/focal length (measured in meters).


If a telescope has an objective lens of 3 inches what is the focal length?

The size (diameter) of a lens does not determine its focal length. The amount of curvature of the lens does. Citing a diameter for a lens doesn't help us find the focal length. Lenses are ground to specifications that allow short or long focal length. The more curved the lens, the shorter the focal length. You can see this if we specify a given curvature and then start to "flatten" the lens. The focal length will get longer and longer as the lens is flattened. When the lens is flat (has to curvature) the lense has an infinite focal length, just like a piece of flat glass.


Explain how the focal length changes as a convex lens becomes flatter?

The focal length of a lens is the distance from the center of the lens to the point at which it focuses light rays. The bigger the focal length, the more powerful the lens. ChaCha!


Does the focal lens length have three classifications?

yes, focal lens length has three classifications


What will happen to the focal length of a lens if it is cut into half vertically?

When the lens is cut vertically then the focal length of the lens will increase.the focal length will become approx double.
