Two lenses have focal lengths $f_1$ and $f_2$ and their dispersive powers are $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ respectively. They will together form an achromatic combination if

  • A
    $\omega_1 f_1 = \omega_2 f_2$
  • B
    $\omega_1 f_2 + \omega_2 f_1 = 0$
  • C
    $\omega_1 + f_1 = \omega_2 + f_2$
  • D
    $\omega_1 - f_1 = \omega_2 - f_2$

$A$ convex lens of focal length $10 \, cm$ is placed in contact with a concave lens. The focal length of the combination is numerically equal to that of the concave lens. The focal length of the concave lens is ............ $cm$.

$A$ concave and a convex lens have the same focal length of $20 \ cm$ and are put into contact to form a lens combination. The combination is used to view an object of $5 \ cm$ length kept at $20 \ cm$ from the lens combination. As compared to the object,the image will be

An object is placed $30 \ cm$ away from a convex lens of focal length $10 \ cm$ and a sharp image is formed on a screen. Now, a concave lens is placed in contact with the convex lens. The screen now has to be moved by $45 \ cm$ to get a sharp image again. The magnitude of the focal length of the concave lens is (in $cm$):
