Combination of Lenses

In a certain camera, a combination of four similar thin convex lenses are arranged axially in contact. Then the power of the combination and the total magnification in comparison to the power ( pp) and magnification ( mm) for each lens will be, respectively

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Powers of lenses in contact add: P=p+p+p+p=4pP = p + p + p + p = 4p.
  2. Treating the image of each lens as the object for the next, the total magnification is the product of the individual ones: m×m×m×m=m4m \times m \times m \times m = m^4.
  3. So the answer is (a) 4p4p and m4m^4.
