An object is placed $30 \ cm$ away from a convex lens of focal length $10 \ cm$ and a sharp image is formed on a screen. Now, a concave lens is placed in contact with the convex lens. The screen now has to be moved by $45 \ cm$ to get a sharp image again. The magnitude of the focal length of the concave lens is (in $cm$):

  • A
    $72$
  • B
    $60$
  • C
    $36$
  • D
    $20$
