  • question_answer
    A combination of two thin lenses of the same material with focal lengths f1 and f2, arranged on a common axis minimizes chromatic aberration, if the distance between them is:

    A)  \[\frac{\left( {{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}} \right)}{4}\]                      

    B)  \[\frac{\left( {{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}} \right)}{2}\]

    C)  \[\left( {{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}} \right)\]                         

    D)  \[2\left( {{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Condition for achromatism for two thin convex lenses of same material and mean focal lengths \[{{f}_{1}}\]and\[{{f}_{2}}\] placed at a distance d apart form an achromatic combination provided,\[d=\frac{{{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}}}{2}\] This combination is free from lateral chromatic aberration for all colours.
