Images Formed by LensesConstruction rules for image formed by Convex Lens
Rule 1: A ray parallel to the principal axis is refracted through the focal point, F
Rule 2: A ray passing through the focal point is refracted parallel to the principal axis.
Rule 3: A ray passing through the optical centre, C travels straight without bending.
The point of intersection is the position of the image.The images formed by a convex lens depend on the object distance, u.
Construction rules for image formed by Concave Lens
Rule 1: A ray parallel to the principal axis is refracted as if it appears coming from the focal point, F which is located at the same side of the incident ray.
Rule 2: A ray passing through the focal point is refracted parallel to the principal axis.
Rule 3: A ray passing through the optical centre, C travels straight without bending.
The point of intersection is the position of the image.The images formed by a concave lens are always virtual, upright and diminished.

When a screen is placed at 60 cm at the opposite side of the lens, a sharp image is formed on it.(a) Draw a ray diagram to show the positions of the object and the image. Use a scale of 1 cm to represent 10 cm in the horizontal axis.(b) Find the focal length of the convex lens.(c) Calculate the linear magnification of the image.
Example 2:
An object of 2 cm height is placed 60 cm in front of a concave lens of focal length 40 cm. (a) Draw a ray diagram to locate the image. Use a scale of 1 cm to represent 10 cm in the horizontal axis. (b) Find the image distance and the magnification.
