The dispersive powers of two lenses are $0.01$ and $0.02.$ If the focal length of one lens is $+10\, cm$,what should be the focal length of the second lens so that they form an achromatic combination?

  • A
    Diverging lens having focal length $20\, cm$.
  • B
    Converging lens having focal length $20\, cm$.
  • C
    Diverging lens having focal length $10\, cm$.
  • D
    Converging lens having focal length $10\, cm$.
