Under what condition will a converging lens form a virtual image?
A virtual image is formed if the object is located less than one focal length from the converging lens.
What conditions cause virtual images to be formed?
Virtual images form when light rays from the same location on an object reflect off a mirror and diverge or spread apart. Real images form when light rays from the same location on an object reflect off a mirror and converge or come together.
Can you make a virtual image with a converging mirror?
Concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images; they can be upright (if virtual) or inverted (if real); they can be behind the mirror (if virtual) or in front of the mirror (if real); they can also be enlarged, reduced, or the same size as object.
Are virtual images formed by converging rays?
In optics, an image is defined as the collection of focus points of light rays coming from an object. A real image is the collection of focus points made by converging rays, while a virtual image is the collection of focus points made by extensions of diverging rays.
Under what conditions does a diverging lens form a virtual image of an object?
When the light rays diverge, but project imaginary extensions that converge to a focal point, the image is virtual and cannot be viewed on a screen or recorded on film. In order to be visualized, a real image must be formed on the retina of the eye.
Under which conditions does a concave mirror produce an enlarged virtual image?
Solution : Concave mirror forms an erect, virtual and enlarged image when the object is between focus and pole of mirror.
Under what conditions does a concave mirror form a virtual image?
Answer: When the object is placed between the pole and focus in front of a concave mirror ,then the image formed virtual .
What is the image formed when a convergent?
real and inverted
When a convergent beam of light is incident on a plane mirror, then the image formed is real and inverted.
Under what condition will a converging lens form a real image that is the same size as the object?
Only a converging lens can be used to produce a real image; and this only occurs if the object is located at a position of more than one focal length from the lens.
What is a virtual image formed by a converging lens?
Converging lenses form virtual images if the object distance is shorter than the focal length. Using the common form of the lens equation, i is negative. Such images are formed with the simple magnifier .
How are virtual images formed?
Virtual Image Formation Converging lenses form virtual images if the object distance is shorter than the focal length. Using the common form of the lens equation, i is negative. Such images are formed with the simple magnifier .
What are converging lenses?
Converging lenses form virtual images if the object distance is shorter than the focal length. Using the common form of the lens equation, i is negative. Such images are formed with the simple magnifier .
Why is the real image inverted in this image?
Note that the real image is inverted. (The image happens to be larger than the object. That happens because the object is between f and 2f away from the lens; if the lens were farther away than 2f, the image would be closer to the lens than 2f, and would be smaller than the object.)
