Concave and convex lenses are placed touching each other. The ratio of the magnitudes of their power is $2:3$. The focal length of the system is $30 \ cm$. Then the focal lengths of the individual lenses are:

  • A
    $-75 \ cm, 50 \ cm$
  • B
    $-15 \ cm, 10 \ cm$
  • C
    $75 \ cm, 50 \ cm$
  • D
    $75 \ cm, -50 \ cm$

$A$ bi-convex lens is formed with two thin plano-convex lenses as shown in the figure. The refractive index $n$ of the first lens is $1.5$ and that of the second lens is $1.2$. Both the curved surfaces are of the same radius of curvature $R = 14 \, cm$. For this bi-convex lens,for an object distance of $40 \, cm$,the image distance will be.......$cm$

View Solution

As shown in the figure, a combination of a thin plano-concave lens and a thin plano-convex lens is used to image an object placed at infinity. The radius of curvature of both the lenses is $30\,cm$ and the refractive index of the material for both the lenses is $1.75$. Both the lenses are placed at a distance of $40\,cm$ from each other. Due to the combination, the image of the object is formed at a distance $x = ..........cm$ from the concave lens.
