उत्तर

Focal length (f1) of the 1st converging lens = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Focal length (f2) of the 2nd converging lens = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Focal length (f3) of the diverging lens = −50 cm = −0.5 m (negative sign due to sign convention)

Power  = `1/"Focal length of lens (in metre)"`

Power (P1) of 1st lens = `1/0.2` = 5 D 

Power (P2) of 2nd lens = `1/0.4` = 2.5 D

Power (P3) of diverging  lens = `1/0.5` = −2 D

Net power of the combination = P1 + P2 + P3

= 5 + 2.5 + (−2)

= 7.5 − 2

= 5.5 D 

Net focal length of the combination = `1/"Net power"`

= `1/5.5`

= 0.1818 m

= 18.18 cm
