Question

3. For yellow light, with a planoconcave lens of the same radius but a concave back surface and a flat front surface, the light diverges after passing through the lens. Where does it appear to originate when it is observed and traced back to where it appears to cross the axis? Explain and if possible, add a drawing.

Step 1

A plano‑concave lens has a flat front surface (facing the incoming yellow light) and a concave back surface of radius R. Parallel yellow rays coming from the left pass through the flat face, then refract at the concave surface and emerge diverging to the right. Show more…
