Question
Describe with the help of a ray-diagram, the size, nature and position of the image formed by a convex lens when an object is placed beyond 2f in front of the lens.
Solution
Image formation diagram:
Image properties:
Image – between F and 2F
Nature of image – real and inverted
Size of Image – diminished
