Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What happens to the image distance when the object is moved closer to a convex lens beyond its focal point?
  • Step 1: Understand that a convex lens is a type of lens that bends light rays to converge at a point called the focal point.
  • Step 2: Know that when an object is placed beyond the focal point of a convex lens, it creates a real image on the opposite side of the lens.
  • Step 3: As the object moves closer to the lens but remains beyond the focal point, the light rays from the object still converge to form an image.
  • Step 4: Observe that as the object gets closer to the lens, the distance from the lens to the image (image distance) increases.
  • Step 5: Conclude that moving the object closer to the lens beyond the focal point results in a larger image distance.
