Answer:

n_l = 1.97

Explanation:

given data:

refractive index of lens 1.50

focal length in air is 30 cm

focal length in water is -188 cm

Focal length of lens is given as

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_2 -n_1}{n_1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{air}}{n_{air}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -1}{1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

focal length of lens in liquid is

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2}   \right ]

                =\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}}  [\frac{1}{(n_{g} - 1) f}

rearrange fron_l

n_l = \frac{n_g f_l}{f_l+f(n_g-1)}

n_l = \frac{1.50*(-188)}{-188 + 30(1.50 -1)}

n_l = 1.97

hellow. first the answer is *not* the one reported by the author. second, you made a mistake in writing the fraction with the refraction coefficients: the numerator is (n_medium-n_glass)/(n_medium) that is (x-1,5)/1,5 // in this case the answer comes correct: n_medium=1,63

Answer:

You can do the reverse unit conversion from cm/s to m/s, or enter any two units below: Metre per second (U.S. spelling: meter per second) is an SI derived unit of both speed (scalar) and velocity (vector quantity which specifies both magnitude and a specific direction), defined by distance in metres divided by time in seconds.
