Carefully read each question and follow the instructions. For diagram questions, draw accurate ray diagrams using a ruler to determine the image location, size, and orientation. Label all relevant points (F, 2F, O) and rays.
1. Which type of lens always produces a virtual, upright, and diminished image for a real object?
Convex lens
Concave lens
Both A and B
Neither A nor B
2. The point on the principal axis where parallel rays converge after passing through a convex lens is called the .
3. A concave lens is also known as a lens because it spreads out parallel rays of light.
4. Draw a ray diagram for an object placed beyond 2F of a convex lens. Determine the characteristics of the image formed.
5. Draw a ray diagram for an object placed anywhere in front of a concave lens. Determine the characteristics of the image formed.
6. A convex lens can form both real and virtual images.
True
False
7. List two applications of convex lenses and two applications of concave lenses.
