Answer:
B) 3:5
Explanation:
Contact lens power P = 2D (Given)
Convex lens power P1 = 5D (Given)
Thus power -
P2 = P – P1 = 2 – 5 = –3D
Therefore the focal length of the divergent lens f2 will be = 100/3cm
and the focal length of the convergent lens f1 will be = 100/5 = 20cm
ω1/ω2 = -f1/f2 = -P2/P1 = 20/100/3 = 3/5
Thus, the ratio of dispersive powers of convergent and divergent lenses is 3:5
