An optical device is constructed by fixing three identical convex lenses of focal lengths $10 \,cm$ each inside a hollow tube at equal spacing of $30 \,cm$ each. One end of the device is placed $10 \,cm$ away from a point source. What is the image shift in $cm$ when the device is moved away from the source by another $10 \,cm$?

$A$ convex lens of focal length $30 \ cm$ forms an image of height $2 \ cm$ for an object situated at infinity. If a concave lens of focal length $20 \ cm$ is placed coaxially at a distance of $26 \ cm$ in front of the convex lens,what will be the size of the final image in $cm$?
