(c) A convex lens (iii) Used by dentists to see enlarged image of teeth.
(d) A concave mirror (iv) The image is always inverted and magnified.
(e) A concave lens (v) The image is erect and of the same size as the object.
    (vi) The image is erect and smaller in size than the object.

A 50 cm tall object is at a very large distance from a diverging lens. A virtual, erect and diminished image of the object is formed at a distance of 20 cm in front of the lens. How much is the focal length of the lens?


A coin placed at the bottom of a vessel appears to be raised when water is poured in the vessel.
