A convex lens of focal length 80 cm and ...

A convex lens of focal length 80 cm and a concave lens of focal length 50 cm are combined toghether. What will be their resulting power ?

A

`45`

B

`30`

C

`15`

D

`5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`(1)/(f)=(1)/(f_(1))+(1)/(f_(2))-(d)/(f_(1)f_(2))=0`
`= (1)/(25)+(1)/(-20)-(d)/(-500)=0=(20-25)/(500)=-(d)/(500)`
`d=5 cm`
