A concave lens has a focal length of 50 cm. Calculate its power.

Given,

Focal length of concave lens = -50 cm


= m


= -0.50 m


To find: Power of lens?


We know,




Power of lens = -2 Dioptres.


Since the focal length of a concave lens is always negative so power of the concave lens is -2 diopters.
