An object is placed at a certain distance to the left of a convex lens of focal length $20 \,cm$. Find the distance of the object if the image obtained is magnified by $4$ times.

The graph between $\frac{1}{u}$ and $\frac{1}{v}$ for a thin convex lens in order to determine its focal length is plotted as shown in the figure. The refractive index of the lens is $1.5$ and both its surfaces have the same radius of curvature $R$. The value of $R$ will be in $cm$.
(Where $u =$ object distance,$v =$ image distance)

Remote sensing satellites move in an orbit that is at an average height of about $500 \, km$ from the surface of the earth. The camera onboard one such satellite has a screen of area $A$ on which the images captured by it are formed. If the focal length of the camera lens is $50 \, cm$,then the terrestrial area that can be observed from the satellite is close to ............... $A$.

Assertion: $A$ double convex lens $(\mu = 1.5)$ has a focal length of $10 \, cm$. When the lens is immersed in water $(\mu = 4/3)$,its focal length becomes $40 \, cm$.
Reason: $\frac{1}{f} = \left( \frac{\mu_l - \mu_m}{\mu_m} \right) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right)$

The focal length of a convex lens is $10 \ cm$ and its refractive index is $1.5$. If the radius of curvature of one surface is $7.5 \ cm$,the radius of curvature of the second surface will be......$cm$.
