A convex lens of focal length 30 cm and ...

A convex lens of focal length `30 cm` and a concave lens of focal length `60 cm` are placed in combination. If an object is placed `40 cm` away from the combination, find the position of the image.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `f_(1) = 30cm, f_(2) = -60 cm`
`u = - 40 cm, v = ?`
`(1)/(F) = (1)/(f_(1)) + (1)/(f_(2)) = (1)/(30) - (1)/(60) = (1)/(60)`
From `(-1)/(u) + (1)/(v) = (1)/(F)`
`(1)/(v) = (1)/(F) + (1)/(u) = (1)/(60) - (1)/(40) = (-1)/(120)`
`v = -120 cm`
which is the position of the image.
