The focal length (in $cm$) of a lens with dispersive power $0.45$ that should be placed in contact with a convex lens of focal length $84 \,cm$ and dispersive power $0.21$ to form an achromatic combination is:

Two similar thin equi-convex lenses,each of focal length $f$,are kept coaxially in contact with each other such that the focal length of the combination is $F_{1}$. When the space between the two lenses is filled with glycerin (which has the same refractive index $\mu = 1.5$ as that of glass),the equivalent focal length is $F_{2}$. The ratio $F_{1} : F_{2}$ will be

Assertion: Two convex lenses joined together cannot produce an achromatic combination.
Reason: The condition for achromatism is $\frac{\omega_1}{f_1} + \frac{\omega_2}{f_2} = 0$,where symbols have their usual meaning.

An optician makes spectacles having a combination of a convex lens of focal length $40 \ cm$ in contact with a concave lens of focal length $25 \ cm$. The power of this combination of lenses in dioptre is:

An achromatic convergent doublet of two lenses in contact has a power $+2 \text{ D}$. The convex lens has power $+5 \text{ D}$. The ratio of the dispersive powers of the convergent and divergent lenses is (in magnitude)
