A convex lens of glass (mu_(g)=1.45) has focal length f_(g) is air. The lens is immersed in a liquid of refractive index (mu_(g)) 1.3. The ratio of the f_(liquid)//f_(g) is

Assertion:A convex lens and a concave lens are kept in contact. They will behave as a diverging lens if focal length of convex lens is more. Reason: Power of a concave lens is always less than the power of a convex lens, as power of concave lens is negative whereas power of convex lens is positive.
