Two convex lenses placed in contact form the image of a distant object at P. If the lens B is moved to the right, the image will

A

move to the left

B

move to the right

C

remain at P

D

move either to the left or right, depending upon focal lengths of the lenses.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b.
Power of the system decreases due to separation between the lenses. So, the focal length increases.
