An object O is kept in air in front of a thin plano convex lens of radius of curvature 10 cm. Its refractiveindex is 3/2and the medium towards right of the plane surface is water of refractive index 4/3.Whatshould be the distance ‘x’ of the object so that the rays become parallel finally?

for refraction at plane surface,
1/x -(3/2v1)=0,v1=3x/2
at curved surface, (3/2v1)+(4/3v2)=((4/3)-(3/2))/(-10)
