  1. Draw two rays to locate the position of the image.
  2. State the position of the image with reference to the lens.
  3. Describe three characteristics of the image.
  4. Describe how the distance of the image from the lens and its size change as the object is moved towards F1.

Solution

  1. The position of image A1B1 is located.
  2. The image is formed beyond 2F2 on the other side of the lens.
  3. Image is real inverted, beyond 2f and enlarged.
  4. Size of image increases and distance of image from the lens increases.
