Three thin lenses are combined by placing them in contact with each other to get more magnification in an optical instrument. Each lens has a focal length of $3 \,cm$. If the least distance of distinct vision is taken as $25 \,cm$,the total magnification of the lens combination in normal adjustment is

$A$ combination of two thin convex lenses of focal lengths $0.3 \, m$ and $0.1 \, m$ will have minimum spherical and chromatic aberrations if the distance between them is . . . . . . $m$.

In the figure shown here,what is the equivalent focal length (in $cm$) of the combination of lenses (Assume that all layers are thin)?

$A$ parallel beam of light is incident on a system of two convex lenses of focal lengths $f_1 = 20\, cm$ and $f_2 = 10\, cm$. What should be the distance between the two lenses so that the rays after refraction from both the lenses emerge as a parallel beam (in $, cm$)? (Note: The condition for the final rays to emerge parallel is that the focal point of the first lens must coincide with the focal point of the second lens).

The following figure represents two biconvex lenses $L_1$ and $L_2$ having focal lengths $10 \,cm$ and $15 \,cm$ respectively. The distance between $L_1$ and $L_2$ is: (in $\,cm$)

$A$ convex and a concave lens separated by a distance are then put in contact. How does the focal length of the combination change?
