The focal length of the lens is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus, usually stated in millimeters (e.g., 28 mm, 50 mm, or 100 mm). In the case of zoom lenses, both the minimum and maximum focal lengths are stated, for example 18–55 mm.As a demonstration of the effectiveness of the lens equation and magnification equation, consider the following sample problem and its solution. A 4.00-cm tall light bulb is placed a distance of 45.7 cm from a double convex lens having a focal length of 15.2 cm. Determine the image distance and the image size.the radius of a circle which touches a curve at a given point and has the same tangent and curvature at that point.the radius of a circle which touches a curve at a given point and has the same tangent and curvature at that point.

The distance between the center of the concave point and the focal point of a mirror or the point where the parallel rays of light meet and the radius of curvature is the distance between the centre of the concave point and the object.

Focal length (f) : the distance between the optic centre of concave lens and it's principal focus is called focal length
Radius of curvature: the distance between centre of curvature and optic centre is called radius of curvature

The length of a massless rod is measured using vernier callipers having 10 vernier scale divisions and least count of 0.1 mm. Two masses 1.00 ± 0.01 kg and 4.00 ± 0.02 kg are attached to its ends. If reading of vernier scale is 5 divisions coinciding with 1.3 cm, what is the % error in locating centre of mass from lighter mass
