When an object is placed between optical centre and focus of lens:
- A. Inverted, real and enlarged image is formed
- B. Virtual, erect and enlarged image is formed
- C. Inverted, erect, diminished image is formed
- D. Virtual, real, diminished image is formed
Step-by-step solution
For a convex lens, when the object is placed between the optical centre and the focus, the rays diverge after refraction, appearing to come from a point behind the object. This results in a virtual, erect, and enlarged image on the same side as the object. This is a standard result from thin lens formula and ray diagrams.
