Consider three converging lenses L1, L2 and L3 having identical geometrical construction. The index of refraction of L1 and L2 are $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ respectively. The upper half of the lens L3 has a refractive index $\mu_1$ and the lower half has $\mu_2$. A point object O is imaged at O1 by the lens L1 and at O2 by the lens L2 placed in same position. If L3 is placed at the same place:

A capacitor C1 of capacitance $1\mu\text{F}$ and a capacitor C2 of capacitance $2\mu\text{F}$ are separately charged by a common battery for a long time. The two capacitors are then separately discharged through equal resistors. Both the discharge circuits are connected at t = 0.
