A diverging lens is used to permit clear vision of an object placed at infinity. The focal length of the lens is -100 cm.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length is half of the radius of curvature of the focal lens.

By the lens maker formula,

1/f = 1/v +1/u

where, v is the image distance and u is the object distance.

Give, the object is at infinity and the image must form at 100 cm, the the focal length will be

1/f = 1/ -100 + 1/∞

f = -100 cm

The focal length must be -100 cm for the diverging lens.
