Vedclass · Answer

(A) For a glass slab, the equivalent focal length $F$ is $\infty$.For two thin lenses of focal lengths $f_1$ and $f_2$ separated by a distance $d$, the equivalent focal length $F$ is given by the formula:$\frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{f_1} + \frac{1}{f_2} - \frac{d}{f_1 f_2}$Since the combination acts as a glass slab, we set $F = \infty$, which implies $\frac{1}{F} = 0$.Substituting this into the formula:$0 = \frac{1}{f_1} + \frac{1}{f_2} - \frac{d}{f_1 f_2}$$0 = \frac{f_2 + f_1}{f_1 f_2} - \frac{d}{f_1 f_2}$$\frac{d}{f_1 f_2} = \frac{f_1 + f_2}{f_1 f_2}$$d = f_1 + f_2$Thus, the distance of separation between the lenses must be $f_1 + f_2$.

For a combination of two convex lenses of focal lengths $f_1$ and $f_2$ to act as a glass slab, the distance of separation between them is
