Where should the object be placed to get the virtual image in case of convex lens?

  • A. object should be placed between \( F \) and 2 F
  • B. object should be placed between F and 0
  • C. object should be placed beyond 2F
  • D. object should be placed at 0

Step-by-step solution

For a convex lens, a virtual image is formed when the object is placed between the focal point (F) and the optical center (0). In this position, the rays diverge after refraction, producing a virtual, erect, and magnified image on the same side as the object.
