A beam of parallel rays is brought to fo...

A beam of parallel rays is brought to focus by a planoconvex lens. A thin Concave lens of the same focal length is joined to the first lens. The effect of this is

A

the focal point shifts away from the lens by a small distance

B

the focus remains undisturbed

C

the focus shifts to infinity

D

the focal point shifts towards the lens by a small distance.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`(1)/(F)=(1)/(f)+(1)/(-f)=0impliesF=infty`
