A thin concave-concave lens is surrounded by two different liquids A and B as shown in figure. The system is
supported by a plane mirror at the bottom. Refractive index of A, lens and B are 9/5, 3/2 and 4/3 respectively. The radius
of curvature of the surfaces of the lens are same and equal to 10 cm. Where should an object be placed infront of this
system so that final image is formed on the object itself.
f1 = 12.5 cm
f2 = 10 cm
f3 = 30 cm
Thus we get
feq = 75 cm
Hence object should be placed at 75 cm.
So, that light rays becomes parallel to principal axis.
