    A convergent doublet of separated lens, corrected for spherical aberration, are separated by 2 cm and has an equivalent focal length of 10 cm. The focal length of its component lenses are:

    A)  \[{{f}_{1}}=18\,cm,\,{{f}_{2}}=10\,cm\]

    B)  \[{{f}_{1}}=20\,cm,\,{{f}_{2}}=28\,cm\]

    C)  \[{{f}_{1}}=20\,cm,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,cm\]

    D)  \[{{f}_{1}}=24\,cm,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,cm\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Since, the doublet is corrected for spherical. aberration, it satisfies the following condition. \[{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{2}}=d=2\,cm\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{f}_{1}}={{f}_{2}}+2\,cm\] Let the equivalent focal length = F \[\therefore \] \[F=\frac{{{f}_{1}}{{f}_{2}}}{{{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}}-d}=10\,cm\] Solving it,\[{{f}_{1}}=20\,cm,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,cm.\]
