An object 5 cm in length is held 25 cm away from a converging lens of focal length 10 cm. Draw the ray diagram and find the position, size and nature of the image formed.

Height of the object,( h₁ ) = 5 cm

Height of the image,( h₂ ) = ?

Distance of the object from the converging lens,( u) = -25 cm

Distance of the image from the converging lens,( v) =?

Focal length of a converging lens,(f) = +10 cm

Using the lens formula,

Thus, the image is inverted and formed at a distance of 16.7 cm behind the lens and measures 3.3 cm. The ray diagram is shown below.
