One of the many random useless factoids that I carry around
in my head is the factoid that 60 miles per hour is equivalent
to exactly 88 feet per second.
So in three seconds at that speed, you would cover exactly
(3 x 88) = 264 feet.
Answer: f=150cm in water and f=60cm in air.
Explanation: Focal length is a measurement of how strong light is converged or diverged by a system. To find the variable, it can be used the formula:
= (nglass - ni)(
-
).
nglass is the index of refraction of the glass;
ni is the index of refraction of the medium you want, water in this case;
R1 is the curvature through which light enters the lens;
R2 is the curvature of the surface which it exits the lens;
Substituting and calculating for water (nwater = 1.3):
= (1.5 - 1.3)(
-
)
= 0.2(
)
f =
= 150
For air (nair = 1):
= (1.5 - 1)(
-
)
f =
= 60
In water, the focal length of the lens is f = 150cm.
In air, f = 60cm.
