The dispersive powers of the 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,$25 \ cm$
