Two similar thin equiconvex lenses, of focal length ff each, are kept coaxially in contact with each other such that the focal length of the combination is F1F_1. When the space between the two lenses is filled with glycerine (which has the same refractive index, μ=1.5\mu = 1.5, as the glass) then the equivalent focal length is F2F_2. The ratio F1:F2F_1 : F_2 will be:

  1. A.2:12:1
  2. B.1:21:2✓
  3. C.2:32:3
  4. D.3:43:4

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
