A convex lens of focal length 30 cm is placed in contact with a concave lens of focal length 20 cm. An object is placed at 20 cm to the left of this lens system. The distance of the image from the lens in cm is ________
Options
- A30
- B45
- C60 7
- D15
Correct answer
D. 15
Step-by-step solution
Equivalent focal length aligned & 1 f = 1 f₁ + 1 f₂ & = 1 30 + 1 -20 = 2-3 60 =- 1 60 & f=-60 ~cm aligned Lens formula aligned & 1 v - 1 u = 1 f & 1 v - 1 -20 = 1 -60 & v =-15 ~cm aligned
