Four modifications are suggested in the lens formula to include the effect of the thickness t of the lens. Which one is likely to be correct?

1. \(\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{t}{u f}\)

2. \(\frac{t}{v^{2}}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\)

3. \(\frac{1}{v-t}-\frac{1}{u+t}=\frac{1}{f}\)

4. \(\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}+\frac{t}{u v}=\frac{t}{f}\)

A parallel beam of light is incident on a converging lens parallel to its principal axis. As one moves away from the lens on the other side on its principal axis, the intensity of light:

1. remains constant
2. continuously increases
3. continuously decreases
4. first increases then decreases

Two concave lenses \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) are kept in contact with each other. If the space between the two lenses is filled with a material of smaller refractive index, the magnitude of the focal length of the combination:
1. becomes undefined.
2. remains unchanged.
3. increases.
4. decreases.
