Since refractive index of lens is less than refractive index of surroundings, it will behave as a convex lens.

Concave lens is immersed in medium having refractive index greater than the refractive index of the material of the lens therefore it will be have such converging lens .

The lens behaves as convex. The reason is when the refractive index of a medium is more than concave lens then the nature of the lens changes to Convex from concave.

Since refractive index of lens < refractive index of surrounding It behaves like converging lens.

from this problem we may knoq that the refractive index of the given lens is less than the refractive index of surroundings, so it will behave as a convex lens.

As the refractive index of the medium =1.65 is more than that of a concave lens =1.5 it's nature will change and lens will become a convex lens

As IIT & board exams are coming near , students you are free ask any doubt in PCM boards or IIT/BITSAT . I completely understand the pressure , anxiety at this time. But maintain calm at this time & be happy .Don't take any stress and just keep on studying with the flow . Truly speaking the person who is studying till the end with happiness only crack these competitive exams easily. Many students leave studying in the last due to tension or piling of massive course. One suggestion for these students is, whatever will going to happen in future is not in your hands , what really in your hands is --> this time !! so just give your best in this time and forget everything else. Don't feel that others have studied more than me, or they have been studying from 2 years or starting , because anything can happen in the last , this is a true fact !! It's about your processor not Harddisk meaning it's about how your brain run at that time in the exams , not specifically about how much you have stored. I myself have seen many people who have got very good ranks by just studying properly in last two months over those students who have been studying for 2 years continously . So remain motivated and give whatever you have to your studies . But very important thing remain happy and enjoy studies. I will be telling other tips & tricks to complete maximum portion in the last in less time . Keep tuned to my future posts.
As a chance to prove yourself and evaluated by a traditional way to the student. Student should not fear but make .
