A parallel beam of light is incident on a system consisting of three thin lenses with a common optical axis. The focal lengths of the lenses are equal to f1=+10f_1 = +10 cm and f2=−20f_2 = -20 cm, and f3=+9f_3 = +9 cm respectively. The distance between the first and the second lens is 15 cm and between the second and the third is 5 cm. Find the position of the point at which the beam converges when it leaves the system of lenses.
