Key Points
- Lens: The transparent curved surface which is used to refract the light and make an image of any object placed in front of it is called a lens.
- Convex lens: A lens having two spherical surfaces, bulging outwards is called a double convex lens (or simply convex lens).
- It is thicker in the middle as compared to the edges.
- Convex lenses converge light rays and hence, convex lenses are also called converging lenses.
- The lens formula is:
- Magnification
- Where, v = Distance of image, u = Distance of object, f = Focal length
Calculation:
- Given:
- u = - 30 cm, f = 10 cm
- Using,
- v = 15 cm
