Convex lenses and where images form
Grade 11 Science Worksheet
Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.
Use the sign rule on the sheet. A convex lens has f = 10 cm, and an object sits 30 cm from it. What is the image distance, Ari?
Using the table, at what object distance is the image the same size as the object, Jun?
- 20 cm
- 30 cm
- 10 cm
Using the table, which object distance gives a virtual image, Kira?
Use the picture in question 2.
- 30 cm
- 15 cm
- 5 cm
Using the table, as the object moves from 30 cm to 15 cm, what happens to the real image, Luz?
Use the picture in question 2.
- It moves farther away and gets bigger
- It stays in the same place
- It moves closer and gets smaller
Use the sign rule on the sheet. A thin-lens answer comes out as di = −12 cm. What does the minus sign mean, Milo?
- The image is real and twice as far
- Nothing: distances can't be negative
- The image is virtual, on the object's side
Use the sign rule on the sheet. A thin-lens answer comes out as di = +25 cm. Where is the image, Noah?
- On the object's side, since the sign doesn't matter
- Inside the lens
- On the far side: real
Use the sign rule on the sheet. Why is f positive for a convex lens, Pia?
- It brings parallel rays together at a real focus
- Its glass is thicker at the edges
- It spreads light apart
An object is 30 cm from a convex lens and its image is at di = 15 cm. Using m = −di ÷ do, what is the image like, Ren?
- Half size and upside down
- Twice the size and upright
- Half size and upright
An object is 5 cm from a convex lens and its image is at di = −10 cm. Using m = −di ÷ do, what is the image like, Tala?
- Half the size and upright
- Twice the size and upright
- Twice the size and upside down
A 2 cm object is 15 cm from a convex lens, and its image is at di = 30 cm. How tall is the image, Zee?
- 4 cm, upright
- 1 cm, upside down
- 4 cm, upside down
