Answer:
R₁ = (n -1) f
Explanation:
In geometric optics the focal length and the radius of curvature are related, for the case of a lens
1 / f = (n₂-n₀) (1 / R₁ - 1 / R₂)
where f is the focal length, n₂ is the refractive index of the material, n₀ is the refractive index of the medium surrounding the material, R₁ and R₂ are the radius of curvature of each of the material's
In our case, the most common is that the lens is in the air, so n1 = 1, in many cases one of the surfaces is flat, so its radius of curvature R₂ = ∞.
1 / f = (n-1) (1 / R₁)
we look for the radius of curvature R₁
1 / R₁ = 1 / f (n-1)
R₁ = (n -1) f
With this expression we can find the radius of curvature of a concave-plane lens
