$A$ bi-convex lens is formed with two thin plano-convex lenses as shown in the figure. The refractive index $n$ of the first lens is $1.5$ and that of the second lens is $1.2$. Both curved surfaces have the same radius of curvature $R = 14\, cm$. For this bi-convex lens,for an object distance of $40\, cm$,the image distance will be.....$ cm$

Two thin biconvex lenses have focal lengths $f_{1}$ and $f_{2}$. $A$ third thin biconcave lens has a focal length of $f_{3}$. If the two biconvex lenses are in contact,the total power of the lenses is $P_{1}$. If the first convex lens is in contact with the third lens,the total power is $P_{2}$. If the second lens is in contact with the third lens,the total power is $P_{3}$,then:
