Four combinations of two thin lenses are given in List-$I$. The radius of curvature of all curved surfaces is $r$ and the refractive index of all lenses is $1.5$. Match lens combinations in List-$I$ with their focal length in List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists.

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 $cm$):

Two thin convex lenses of focal lengths $30 \ cm$ and $10 \ cm$ are placed coaxially, $1 \ cm$ apart. The power of this combination is (in $D$):
