A convex lens is dipped in a liquid whose refractive index is equal to the refractive index of the lens. Then its focal length will:
  1. become zero
  2. become infinite
  3. become small, but non-zero
  4. remain unchanged

Solution

When refractive index of lens is equal to the refractive index of liquid, the lens behave like a plane surface with focal length infinity.
