Four combinations of two thin lenses are given in List-$I$. The radius of curvature of all curved surfaces is $r$ and the refractive index of all lenses is $1.5$. Match lens combinations in List-$I$ with their focal length in List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists.

$A$ convergent lens is placed $40 \,cm$ to the right of a diverging lens of focal length $15 \,cm$. $A$ parallel beam of light enters the diverging lens from the left, and the beam is again parallel when it emerges from the convergent lens. The focal length of the convergent lens is (in $\,cm$)

$A$ convex lens of power $+6 D$ is placed in contact with a concave lens of power $-4 D$. What is the nature and focal length of the combination?

Two plano-convex lenses,each of focal length $10 \, cm$ and refractive index $3/2$,are placed as shown in the figure. The space between them is filled with water $\left( \mu = 4/3 \right)$. The whole arrangement is in air. The optical power of the system is ....... $D$.

$A$ 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).
