Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of image is formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length?
  • Step 1: Understand what a convex lens is. A convex lens is thicker in the middle and bends light rays inward.
  • 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 (2F).
  • Step 4: Use the lens formula. For a convex lens, when the object is beyond 2F, the image is formed on the opposite side of the lens.
  • Step 5: Determine the type of image. The image formed is real, meaning it can be projected on a screen.
  • Step 6: Check the orientation of the image. The image is inverted, which means it is upside down compared to the object.
