उत्तर

Focal length of the convex lens, f1 = 30 cm

Focal length of the concave lens, f2 = −20 cm

Focal length of the system of lenses = f

The equivalent focal length of a system of two lenses in contact is given as:

`1/"f" = 1/"f"_1 + 1/"f"_2`

`1/"f" = 1/30 - 1/20`

`1/"f" = (2 - 3)/60`

`1/"f" = -1/60`

∴ f = −60 cm

Hence, the focal length of the combination of lenses is 60 cm. The negative sign indicates that the system of lenses acts as a diverging lens.
