    The dispersive powers of glasses of lenses used in an achromatic pair are in the ratio 5 : 3. If the focal length of the concave lens is 15 cm, then the nature and focal length of the other lens would be

    A)  convex, 9 cm                    

    B)  concave, 9 cm  

    C)         convex, 25 cm 

    D)         concave, 25 cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Condition for achromatic combination \[r=\frac{10}{2}=5cm=5\times {{10}^{-2}}m\] \[R=5\Omega \] \[H=0.314\]         \[H=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{2\pi ni}{r}\] Focal length is positive, so it is convex.
