To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these outlined steps: ### Step 1: Identify the parameters of the concave lens - The object distance (u) = -30 cm (the negative sign indicates that the object is in front of the lens). - The refractive index (n) of the lens = 1.5. - The radius of curvature (R) of each surface = 30 cm. ### Step 2: Calculate the focal length of the concave lens (F_L) ...
