Question
An illuminated object is placed at a distance of 20 cm from a converging lens of focal length 15 cm. The image obtained on the screen is:
(a) upright and magnified
(b) inverted and magnified
(c) inverted and diminished
(d) upright and diminished
Solution
Inverted and magnified
For an object placed between the focal length and twice the focal length of a converging lens, the image formed is real, inverted and magnified.
