    A convergent doublet of separated lens, corrected for spherical aberration, are separated by \[2\,\,cm\] and has an equivalent focal length of \[10\,\,cm\]. The focal length of its component lenses are:

    A) \[{{f}_{1}}=18\,\,cm,\,\,{{f}_{2}}=10\,\,cm\]

    B) \[{{f}_{1}}=20\,\,cm,\,\,{{f}_{2}}=28\,\,cm\]

    C) \[{{f}_{1}}=20\,\,cm,\,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,\,cm\]

    D) \[{{f}_{1}}=24\,\,cm,\,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,\,cm\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Since, the doublet is corrected for spherical aberration, it satisfies the following condition.                 \[{{f}_{1}}-{{f}_{2}}=d=2\,\,cm\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{f}_{1}}={{f}_{2}}+2\,\,cm\] Let the equivalent focal length\[=F\] \[\therefore \]  \[F=\frac{{{f}_{1}}{{f}_{2}}}{{{f}_{1}}+{{f}_{2}}-d}=10\,\,cm\] Solving it\[,\]     \[{{f}_{1}}=20\,\,cm,\,\,{{f}_{2}}=18\,\,cm\].
