An object is kept at a distance of 16 cm from a thin lens and the image formed is real. If the object is kept at a distance of 6 cm from the same lens, the image formed is virtual. If the size of the image formed are equal, the focal length of the lens will be

Consider a concave mirror and a convex lens (refractive index 1.5) of focal length 10 cm each separated by a distance of 50 cm in air (refractive index = 1) as shown in the Fig. An object is placed at a distance of 15 cm from the mirror. Its erect image formed by this combination has magnification M_1 . When this set up is kept in a medium of refractive index 7//6 , the magnification becomes M_2 . The magnitude ((M_2)/(M_1)) is : .
