$A$ biconvex lens is formed by using two thin planoconvex lenses, as shown in the figure. The refractive index and radius of curved surfaces are also mentioned in the figure. When an object is placed on the left side of the lens at a distance of $30 \ cm$ from the biconvex lens, the magnification of the image will be:

  • A
    $-2$
  • B
    $+2$
  • C
    $+2.5$
  • D
    $-2.5$

$(a)$ Determine the 'effective focal length' of the combination of two lenses,a convex lens of focal length $30 \; cm$ and a concave lens of focal length $20 \; cm$,if they are placed $8.0 \; cm$ apart with their principal axes coincident. Does the answer depend on which side of the combination a beam of parallel light is incident? Is the notion of effective focal length of this system useful at all?
$(b)$ An object $1.5 \; cm$ in size is placed on the side of the convex lens in the arrangement $(a)$ above. The distance between the object and the convex lens is $40 \; cm$. Determine the magnification produced by the two-lens system,and the size of the image.
