A concave mirror of focal length 6 cm is placed at a distance 'd' from the convex lens of focal length 8 cm. A beam of light coming from infinity and falling on this convex lens-concave mirror combination returns to infinity. The distance 'd' must be equal to:

  1. A 14 cm
  2. B 20 cm
  3. C 28 cm
  4. D 22 cm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 14 cm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Image by convex lens forms at its focal length: \( v_L = f_L = 8 \text{ cm} \). For reflected light to return to infinity, the image formed by the lens must coincide with the focal point of the concave mirror. Distance \( d = f_L + f_M \).…
