JEE Main Optics: Equivalent Power of Separated Lenses 💡

Image
  ❓ Question Two thin convex lenses of focal lengths f 1 = 30  cm , f 2 = 10  cm f_1 = 30\text{ cm}, \quad f_2 = 10\text{ cm} are placed coaxially, 10 cm apart . Find the power of the combination . 🖼️ Question Image ✍️ Short Solution This is NOT the simple “lenses in contact” case. Because they are separated by distance d d d , we must use the correct combination formula 🔥 🔹 Step 1 — Formula for Two Lenses Separated by Distance Equivalent focal length: 1 F = 1 f 1 + 1 f 2 − d f 1 f 2 \frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{f_1} + \frac{1}{f_2} - \frac{d}{f_1 f_2} Where: f 1 , f 2 f_1, f_2 ​ in same units d d  = separation 🔹 Step 2 — Convert Everything to Same Unit Given: f 1 = 30  cm , f 2 = 10  cm , d = 10  cm f_1 = 30\text{ cm},\quad f_2 = 10\text{ cm},\quad d = 10\text{ cm} All already in cm — good 👍 🔹 Step 3 — Substitute Values 1 F = 1 30 + 1 10 − 10 30 × 10 \frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{30} + \frac{1}{10} - \frac{10}{30\times 10} Ca...

No formulas to memorize separately — just remember: γ = C p C v = f + 2 f Where f f = degrees of freedom 🔥 🔹 Step 1 — Formula to Remember (MOST IMPORTANT 💯)** For ideal gas: C v = f 2 R C_v = \frac{f}{2}R C p = C v + R = f + 2 2 R C_p = C_v + R = \frac{f+2}{2}R So: γ = f + 2 f \boxed{\gamma = \frac{f+2}{f}} 🔹 Step 2 — Monoatomic Gas Monoatomic gas has: f = 3 f = 3 So: γ = 3 + 2 3 = 5 3 \gamma = \frac{3+2}{3} = \frac{5}{3} ✔️ Matches option 1 So: C → 1 \boxed{C \rightarrow 1} 🔹 Step 3 — Diatomic Rigid Gas Rigid diatomic gas: 3 translational 2 rotational f = 5 f = 5 γ = 5 + 2 5 = 7 5 \g...
