Two similar thin equi-convex lenses,each of focal length $f$,are kept coaxially in contact with each other such that the focal length of the combination is $F_{1}$. When the space between the two lenses is filled with glycerin (which has the same refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ as that of glass),the equivalent focal length is $F_{2}$. The ratio $F_{1} : F_{2}$ will be

$A$ convex lens $A$ of focal length $20 \,cm$ and a concave lens $B$ of focal length $56 \,cm$ are kept along the same axis with a distance $d$ between them. If a parallel beam of light falling on $A$ leaves $B$ as a parallel beam, then the magnitude of distance $d$ (in $cm$) is

An object $AB$ is placed $15 \text{ cm}$ on the left of a convex lens $P$ of focal length $10 \text{ cm}$. Another convex lens $Q$ is now placed $15 \text{ cm}$ to the right of lens $P$. If the focal length of lens $Q$ is $15 \text{ cm}$, the final image is . . . . . . .

Three lenses $L_1, L_2, L_3$ are placed co-axially as shown in the figure. The focal lengths of the lenses are $30 \, cm, 10 \, cm$ and $5 \, cm$ respectively. If a parallel beam of light falls on lens $L_1$ and emerges from $L_3$ as a convergent beam such that it converges at the focus of $L_3$,find the distance $d$ between $L_1$ and $L_2$ in $cm$.
