Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Lensmaker with surrounding media: apply surface by surface.

(P) Refraction through lens into water gives final image 180 cm from lens. P 3

(Q) Silvered back: system acts as mirror of effective power twice the lens; image at 60 cm. Q 5

(R) Water lens between two glass lenses: net power gives image at 240 cm. R 1

(S) Two-lens separated system traced surface by surface gives 160 cm. S 2
