Question
An object is placed 10 cm from a lens of focal length 5 cm. Draw the ray diagrams to show the formation of image if the lens is converging,
Solution
When an object is placed at 2F' of a converging lens, the image formed is real, inverted and of same size as the object. The image position at 2F is shown in the figure

A small bulb is placed at the focal point of a converging lens. When the bulb is switched on, the lens produces:
(a) a convergent beam of light
(b) a divergent beam of light
(c) a parallel beam of light
(d) a patch of coloured light
How would you alter the above diagram to show how a converging lens can produce a beam of parallel rays of light.
