A compound microscope consists of an objective of focal length 1cm and an eyepiece of focal length 5cm. An object is placed at a distance of 0.5cm from the objective. What should be the separation between the lenses so that the microscope projects an inverted real image of the object on a screen 30cm behind the eyepiece?
