THEORY
PROCEDURE
For focal length of convex lens :-
1) Take any one convex lens and
and its rough focal length.
2) Take a plane mirror and place
it on the horizontal base of the
iron stand.
3) Place the convex lens on the
plane mirror.
4) Screw tight the optical needle
in the clamp of the standard hold
it horizontally above the lens at
distance equal to its rough focal
length.
5) Bring the top of the needle at
the vertical principal axis of the
lens, so that tip of the needle
appears touching the top of its
image.
6) Move the needle up and down
and remove parallax between
tips of the needle and its image.
7) Measure distance between tip
and upper surface of the lens by
using a plumb line and half meter
scale.
8) Also measure distance
between tip and the surface of its
plane mirror.
CALCULATION
Mean distance between two legs :-
L=(AB+BC+CA)/3 = 3 cm
Mean of h :-
=(0.555+0.6)/2 = 0.5775 cm
To find the radius of the curvature of the
convex lens:-
R = l2/6h + h/2 = 2.8861 cm
Measurement of refractive index of water
and oil :-
1. With water between the convex lens
and the plane mirror -
µ1 = 1+R/f2 = 1+2.8861/34.7 =
1.0831
