A double convex lens, lens made of a material of refractive index $\mu_{1}$, is placed inside two liquids or refractive indices $\mu_{2}$ and $\mu_{3}$, as shown. $\mu_{2} \mu_{1} \mu_{3}$. A wide, parallel beam of light is incident on the lens from the left. The lens will give rise to

Question

A double convex lens, lens made of a material of refractive index $\mu_{1}$, is placed inside two liquids or refractive indices $\mu_{2}$ and $\mu_{3}$, as shown. $\mu_{2} > \mu_{1} > \mu_{3}$. A wide, parallel beam of light is incident on the lens from the left. The lens will give rise to

(d) As $\mu_{2} > \mu_{1},$ the upper half of the lens will become diverging
As $\mu_{1} > \mu_{3}$, the lower half of the lens will become converging
