  1. focal length of lens is 120 cm
  2. y-coordinate of the point at which light rays focus is 4 πcm
  3. light rays get reflected (TIR) from first surface of the lens
  4. y-coordinate of the point at which light rays focus is -4 πcm

A
focal length of lens is 120 cm
B
light rays get reflected (TIR) from first surface of the lens
C
y-coordinate of the point at which light rays focus is -4 πcm
D
y-coordinate of the point at which light rays focus is 4 πcm
Solution
Verified by Toppr

We use the lens maker's formula,
1f=(μ1)(1R11R2)

μ=1.5,R1=60,R2=30

f=120

Since, a lens converges a parallel beam of light on its focus, the y coordinate of the lens is,
y=fθ

y=120×6π180

Thus, y=4π
