Two thin converging lenses L1 and L2 have focal lengths \(f_{1}=10\ \text{cm}\) and \(f_{2}=20\ \text{cm}\) respectively. They are placed \(25\ \text{cm}\) apart on the same principal axis. An object \(2.0\ \text{cm}\) tall is positioned \(15\ \text{cm}\) to the left of L1. Determine (i) the position of the final image formed by the combination relative to L2, and (ii) the overall linear magnification of the object.

Answer Options

A. The final image is 2 cm to the left of L2; overall magnification = 0.8 (image upright and 0.8 times the size).
Correct Answer B. The final image is 4 cm to the right of L2; overall magnification = -1.6 (image inverted and 1.6 times larger).
C. The final image is 4 cm to the left of L2; overall magnification = -0.5 (image inverted and half the size).
D. The final image is 6 cm to the right of L2; overall magnification = -1.2 (image inverted and 1.2 times larger).
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
The final image is 4 cm to the right of L2; overall magnification = -1.6 (image inverted and 1.6 times larger).
