Refraction by Spherical Lenses
Lens is a transparent medium bounded by two refracting surfaces.
Types of lenses
(1) Convex or converging
(2) Concave or diverging
Convex Lens
A lens having both spherical surface or one spherical and other plane surface.
It is thick in the middle and thin at the edges.
They are of 3 types:
(a) Bi-convex
(b) Plane-convex
(c) Concavo-convex
Concave lens
(a) Bi-concave
(b) Plane-concave
(c) Convexo-Concave
