Correct option is D)
From lens maker's formula,f 1 =(μ−1)( R 1 1 − R 2 1 ) 20 1 =(1.5−1)( R 1 − (−2R) 1 ) 20 1 = 2 1 × 2R 3 R=15cm
∴ length of radius =(2R)=2×15 cm=30 cm

Why is the focal length of a convex lens equal to the radius of curvature when the refractive index is 1.5?
Answer: That isn’t necessarily true. The focal length of an optical surface is given by this equation: f=R/(n'-n) , where R is the radius of curvature; n’ is index of refraction for the glass; and n’ is the index of refraction for the incident light ray’s medium. f is only equal to R when n'-n=1.

That isn’t necessarily true.
The focal length of an optical surface is given by this equation:
f=R/( n ′ −n) f=R/(n′−n)
, where R is the radius of curvature; n’ is index of refraction for the glass; and n’ is the index of refraction for the incident light ray’s medium. f is only equal to R when
n ′ −n=1. n′−n=1.

Why is the focal length of a convex lens always positive?
OK, many answers given here on the basis of image formation on the right side of the optical center and only sign convention are WRONG.
Think about this, focal length is intrinsic property of a lens, and should not depend on how far the object or image is, though which side of lens they are on is important, which you’ll see why later in this answer.
and And, this answer is particularly more difficult to comprehend, so either read carefully, or, skip to the last line.
ALSO, FOCAL LENGTH OF A CONVEX OF A CONVEX LENS IS NOT ALWAYS POSITIVE, ESPECIALLY IF THE OBJECT IS ON THE RIGHT OF THE LENS .

How can a lens have two different radii of curvature but the same focal length? I thought the focal length is half of the radius of curvature, or is it only for curved mirrors and not lenses?
Originally Answered: How can a lens have two different radii of curvature but the same focal length i thought focal length is half radius of curvature or is it only for curved mirrors only and not lenses?
A lens is a little more complicated than a mirror.
A mirror behaves mathematically as if the index were -1 and it only has one relevant surface.
A lens has two surfaces, distance between them, and a refractive index, and all of those properties affect the focal length.
The formula for the focal length of a lens in a vacuum is given by:
1 f =(n−1)[ 1 R 1 − 1 R 2 + (n−1)d n R 1 R 2 ]
1f=(n−1)[1R1−1R2+(n−1)dnR1R2]
where
f is the focal length
R 1 R1
is the radius of curvature of the first surface
R 2 R2
is the radius of curvature of the second surface
n is the index of refraction of the lens

In a plano-convex lens the radius of curvature of the convex surface is 10 cm and the focal length of the lens is 30 cm. What will be the refractive index of the material of the lens?
Lens Makers formula says that
1 f =(μ−1)( 1 R 1 − 1 R 2 ) 1f=(μ−1)(1R1−1R2) So putting f=30cm f=30cm , R 1 =∞ R1=∞ and R 2 =−10cm R2=−10cm we get that μ= 4 3 μ=43
