Question
Fig shows an object PQ placed on the principle axis of a lens L. The two foci of the kens are F1 and f2. The image formed by the lens is erect, Virtual and dimnished.

(i) Draw the outline ofthe lens L used and Named it.
(ii) Draw a ray of light starting from Q and passing through O. show the same ray after refraction by the lens.
(iii) Draw another ray from Q Which is incident parallel to the principle axis and show how it emerges after refraction from the lens.
(iv) Locate the final image formed.
