The focal length of the field lens (which is an achromatic combination of two lenses) of a telescope is $90 \ cm$. The dispersive powers of the two lenses in the combination are $0.024$ and $0.036$. The focal lengths of the two lenses are:

Two thin convex lenses of focal length $f_1$ and $f_2$ are placed in contact with each other. The equivalent power of the lens combination is . . . . . . .

Two thin convex lenses are kept in contact coaxially. If the focal length of the combination of the lenses is $4 \ cm$ and the sum of the focal lengths of the two lenses is $18 \ cm$,then the focal length of the lens of lower power is (in $cm$)

In a certain camera,a combination of four similar thin convex lenses are arranged axially in contact. Then the power of the combination and the total magnification in comparison to the power $(p)$ and magnification $(m)$ for each lens will be,respectively
