How is the image formed by a concave lens similar to the image formed by a convex mirror?
Both a concave lens and a convex mirror can produce virtual and diminished images. The images formed are located behind the lens/mirror and are upright.
What is the difference between the virtual image formed by a convex lens and a concave lens?
A convex lens forms a virtual image when the object is placed inside the focal length of the lens, while a concave lens always forms a virtual image regardless of the object's position. Additionally, the virtual image formed by a convex lens is upright and magnified, whereas the virtual image formed by a concave lens is always diminished in size.
What is the nature of image formed by a convex lens?
A convex lens forms a real or virtual, inverted or upright image, depending on the object distance and the focal length of the lens. The image can be either magnified or reduced in size compared to the object.
Is convex lens a virtual image?
No, a convex lens produces a real image when the object is beyond the focal point and a virtual image when it is closer than the focal point.
What kind of images does a convex lens produce?
Convex lenses form real images and concave lenses form virtual images. But there is one case in which convex lens also forms virtual images. This is when object is placed between Principal Focus "F" and Optical Centre "O"
