Q

After passing through a concave lens, a beam appears to diverge from a point 25 cm behind the lens. What is the lens power?

✓ Answer: D -4 D
The source treats the point as the virtual focus, with f = -25 cm, giving P = -4 D. For a concave lens with parallel input, the virtual focus is on the incident side; 'behind' is imprecise.
