There are two lenses. one is convex of focal length 50cm and the other is concave lens of focal length 25 cm. what is the power of combination of these 2 lenses.

 Power of convex lens=1/f

where f=+50cm

f = +0.5m

p=1/0.5

p=2D

Focal length of concave lens= -25cm

f = -0.25m

P=1/-0.25

P=-4D

combination of their power=2D +(-4D)

                                                = -2D
