Consider three converging lenses L1,L2 and L3 having identical geometrical construction. The index of refraction of L1 and L2 are μ1and μ2 respectively. The upper half of the lens L3 has a refractive index μ1 and lower half has μ2. A point object O is imaged at O1 by the lens L1 and O2 by the lens L2 placed in same position. If L3is placed at the same place,

Solution

The correct options are
A there will be an image at O1
