A plano-convex lens (focal length `f_2`, refractive index`mu_(2)`, radius of curvature R) fits exactly into a plano-concave lens (focal length`f_(1)` refractive index `mu_1`, radius of curvature R). Their plane surfaces are parallel to each other. Then, the focal length of the combination will be :

A

`f_(1)-f_(2)`

B

`(R)/(mu_(2)-mu_(1)`

C

`(2f_1f_(2))/(f_(1)-f_(2)`

D

`f_(1)+f_(2)`
