What happens to the image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length? (2022)
  • Step 1: Understand what a convex lens is. A convex lens is thicker in the middle and bends light rays that pass through it.
  • Step 2: Know the focal length. The focal length is the distance from the lens to the point where light rays converge.
  • Step 3: Identify the position of the object. In this case, the object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length of the lens.
  • Step 4: Determine the type of image formed. When the object is beyond twice the focal length, the image formed is real. This means it can be projected onto a screen.
  • Step 5: Check the orientation of the image. The image is inverted, which means it is upside down compared to the object.
  • Step 6: Compare the size of the image to the object. The image is smaller than the object when the object is placed beyond twice the focal length.
