Solution

The correct option is A 2.5 cm
Without the concave lens, image is formed at a distance 30 cm from the convex lens. When concave lens is placed, it serves as the object for the concave lens.

Hence, for concave lens, u=4 cm

Given, f=20 cm

From lens formula,

1v1u=1f

1v=14+120=420

v=5 cm

Magnification of lens, m=vu=54

Magnification of lens, m=hIho

hI=2×1.25=2.5 cm
