Suppose a student  sets up yet another mystery lens (“lens 7”) on the rail with the light source and a screen. With this lens placed a particular distance, p1, in front of the light source, a sharp, inverted image that is the same size as the original light source forms on the screen when the screen is located a distance, q1, in front of the lens. The student then adds a second, identical “lens 7” so that is is pressed up right against the first lens on the rail. In one to three sentences, describe (as accurately as possible) what you must do to obtain an image on the screen again with this new “combination” lens, and explain why.
