In an experiment,a convex lens of focal length $15 \, cm$ is placed coaxially on an optical bench in front of a convex mirror at a distance of $5 \, cm$ from it. It is found that an object and its image coincide if the object is placed at a distance of $20 \, cm$ from the lens. The focal length of the convex mirror is.......$cm$.

$A$ plano-convex lens made of material of refractive index $\mu$ with radius of curvature $R$ is silvered on the curved side. How far away from the lens-mirror must you place a point object,so that the image coincides with the object?

Given a thin convex lens (refractive index $\mu_2$),kept in a liquid (refractive index $\mu_1, \mu_1 < \mu_2$) having radii of curvature $|R_1|$ and $|R_2|$. Its second surface is silver-polished. Where should an object be placed on the optic axis so that a real and inverted image is formed at the same place?

Two identical thin plano-convex glass lenses (refractive index $1.5$) each having a radius of curvature of $20\, cm$ are placed with their convex surfaces in contact at the centre. The intervening space is filled with oil of refractive index $1.7$. The focal length of the combination is.......$cm$.

The two surfaces of a biconvex lens have the same radii of curvature. This lens is made of glass of refractive index $1.5$ and has a focal length $10 \ cm$ in air. The lens is cut into two equal halves along a plane perpendicular to its principal axis to yield two plano-convex lenses. The two pieces are glued such that the convex surfaces touch each other. If this combination lens is immersed in water (refractive index $= 4/3$), its focal length (in $cm$) is:
