Two co-axial lenses of power +4 D and -2 D are placed in contact. The focal length of combination is
Options
- A0.5 ~m
- B0.25 ~m
- C0.16 ~m
- D-0.5 ~m
Correct answer
A. 0.5 ~m
Step-by-step solution
The focal length of combination of two lenses, aligned 1 f &= 1 f₁ + 1 f₂ = 1 (1 / 4) + 1 (-1 / 2) (f= 1 P ) &=4-2=2 f &=0.5 ~m aligned
