A convex lense whose focal length is 20cm will produce a magnified,erect image when the object is placed at the distance of a)40cm b)30cm c)20cm d)10cm

@AllTehMaffs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmmm......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait a moment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is not 20!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its is D ..but don't know how ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is 10!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It has to be between the focal point and the lens. D, yah.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lemme explain by diagram

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i guess the figure is untidy .. here is my resource material! http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/refrn/u14l5db.cfm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it all is related to the lens conventions..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm confused ..Need explanation 'bout this prooblem only :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok let me try again!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For a convex lens, The real image - the image on the opposite side of the lens - will always be upside down. To get it not inverted (which is what I think they mean by erect) the image has to be a virtual image. And to do that, the object must be placed inside the focal length.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i guess a video would be nice right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm right @croslali and @AllTehMaffs how we find its value by putting lens formula ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You mean how magnified it would be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey hey there is no lens formula for these type of questions it is all based on the diagram

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No ..wana know the distance of object from lens ..@AllTehMaffs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

link is not working ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait lemme try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there does that work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope ;;
