The focal length of the converging lens is 25 cm, which is equal to the optical power of this lens.

Let’s translate the focal length, expressed in centimeters, into meters:
25 cm = 0.25 m.

In order to solve the presented problem
Let us write down the formula relating the optical power of the lens and the focal length of the lens.

It contains only 1 value – the focal length:
D = 1 / F.

Substitute the known value of the focal length of the collecting lens into the written formula and get:
D = 1 / F = 1 / 0.25 m = 4 diopters (diopters).

Answer: 4 diopters.
