The diagram below shows a lens as a combination of a glass slab and two prisms.
- Name the lens formed by the combination.
- What is the line XX’ called?
- Complete the path of the incident ray AB after passing through the lens.
- The final emergent ray either meets XX’ at a point or appears to come from a point on XX’. Label it as F. What is this point called?

In the diagram below, XX’ represents the principal axis, O the optical centre and F the focus of the lens. Complete the path of rays A and B as they emerge out of the lens.

The diagram given below shows the position of an object OA in relation to a converging lens whose foci are at F1 and F2.

Describe how the distance of the image from the lens and the size of the image change as the object is moved towards F1.
