$A$ biconvex glass lens has a focal length $f$ and power $P$. It is cut into two symmetric parts along its principal axis. If these two parts are joined as shown in figure $(b)$,what is the new power of the combination?

The combination of a convex lens $(f = 18 \ cm)$ and a thin concave lens $(f = 9 \ cm)$ is:

The following figure represents two biconvex lenses $L_1$ and $L_2$ having focal lengths $10 \,cm$ and $15 \,cm$ respectively. The distance between $L_1$ and $L_2$ is: (in $\,cm$)

Two plano-convex lenses,each of focal length $10 \, cm$ and refractive index $3/2$,are placed as shown in the figure. The space between them is filled with water $\left( \mu = 4/3 \right)$. The whole arrangement is in air. The optical power of the system is ....... $D$.

$A$ convex lens of focal length $30 \ cm$ is placed in contact with a concave lens of focal length $20 \ cm$. An object is placed at $20 \ cm$ to the left of this lens system. The distance of the image from the lens in $cm$ is . . . . . .

The plane faces of two identical plano-convex lenses,each with focal length $f$,are pressed against each other using an optical glue to form a convex lens. The distance from the optical centre at which an object must be placed to obtain an image of the same size as the object is
