There are two thin symmetrical lenses, one is converging, with refractive index , and the other is diverging with refractive index . Both lenses have the same curvature radius of their surface equal to . The lenses are put close together and submerged into water. The focal length of lens system is found to be in water. What is the value of x. (R.I. of water )

Answer:
3.00
Solution:

Lens maker's formula in water, , applied to each thin lens.

Adding the powers of the converging and diverging lenses gives f = 100/3 cm, so x = 3.

Answer: 3.00
