- A thin convex lens of focal length \( 5 \) cm and a thin concave lens of focal length \( 4 \) cm are combined together (without any gap), and this combination has magnification \( m_1 \) when an object is placed \( 10 \) cm before the convex lens.
Keeping the positions of the convex lens and the object undisturbed, a gap of \( 1 \) cm is introduced between the lenses by moving the concave lens away. This leads to a change in magnification of the total lens system to \( m_2 \).
The value of \( \dfrac{m_1}{m_2} \) is

Concepts Used:
Coordination Compounds
A coordination compound holds a central metal atom or ion surrounded by various oppositely charged ions or neutral molecules. These molecules or ions are re-bonded to the metal atom or ion by a coordinate bond.
Coordination entity:
A coordination entity composes of a central metal atom or ion bonded to a fixed number of ions or molecules.
Ligands:
A molecule, ion, or group which is bonded to the metal atom or ion in a complex or coordination compound by a coordinate bond is commonly called a ligand. It may be either neutral, positively, or negatively charged.
