NEET 2021 Physics Lens Combination MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

A convex lens ‘A’ of focal length 20 cm and a concave lens ‘B’ of focal length 5 cm are kept along the same axis with a distance ‘d’ between them. If a parallel beam of light falling on ‘A’ leaves ‘B’ as a parallel beam, then the distance ‘d’ in cm will be :

A

25

B

15

C

50

D

30

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

For the system to behave as a parallel beam, the effective focal length should be infinite. Using the lens formula for combination, 1/f = 1/f1 + 1/f²⁻ d/(f1*f2), solve for d.
