What kind of image is formed by a convex lens when the object is less than a focal length away from the object?

A) an image that is always smaller than the object

B) none, because the lens is too close to the object

C) a virtual image

D) an inverted real image

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object that is less than a focal length from a convex lens forms a virtual, magnified image. When the object is closer to a convex lens than the focal point, its rays do not pass through the focal point to form an image on the opposite side of the lens.
