THEORY :
PROCEDURE :
a) For focal length of convex lens
1) A plane mirror was placed on the horizontal base of
iron stand and then a convex lens on the plane mirror.

OBSERVATIONS :
1)
Rough focal length of convex lens =
cm
2)

Calculation :
1)l = l1 + l2 + l3 / 3 = ............ cm
2)R = l2/6h + h2/2 = ........ cm
3)f1 = ff2/f-f2 = cm

Results :
1) The refractive index of water nw =
2)The refractive index of other liquid (kerosene oil) nl
=
Precautions :
1)The plane mirror should be clean and fully shining
surface.
2)The liquid taken should be transparent.
3)The parallax should be removed tip to tip.
4)The eye should be at a distance about 30 cm from
needle while removing the parallax.
5)Only few drops of liquid should be taken so that its
layer should be thick.
Sources of error :
1)Liquid may not be quite transparent.
2)The parallax may not be fully removed.
3)The spherometer legs should be placed symmetrical
on the surface of convex lens.
4)The tip of central screw should not just touch the
surface of lens or mirror.
