Does the thickness of a lens affect the image?

If the lens are thicker it affects the image distance.


Why is it important for your eye to contain a lens?

Without the lens in your eye you can not form a image on the retina. As the retina is kept at a fixed distance you change the thickness of the lens to get the image on the retina.


What does the lens do on an eye?

It makes an image to fall on the retina. For this function the thickness of the lens is changed according to the distance of the object.


How does the distance between an object and a convex lens affect the image formed?

It should appear the same.


The image produced by a convex lens depends on what?

The image depends on the distance the object is from the lens.


The distance between the lens and the image?

If 'f' is the focal length of the lens, and 'o' is the distance between the lens and the object, then the distance between the lens and the image is: ('f' times 'o') divided by ('o' minus 'f')


How can you tell what the focal length is for a lens?

Easy way: Use it to form an image of the sun or moon, and measure the distance of the image behind the lens. When the object is at infinity, the distance between the lens and the image is the focal length of the lens.


Does focal length determine the image quality?

No, just changes the distance required between the lens and the screen in order to get a good picture. BUT it does not affect image quality.


Factors affecting for length of a convex lens by the lens displacement method using cojugate foci?

There are many factors that can affect the focal length of a convex lens. These include: - The thickness of the lens - The type of material that the lens is made ot of - The curviture of the lens - How big the distance between the lens and the image you are viewing is. This is obviously a major factor due to the fact the the focal length is where all the light becomes concentrated and the image becomes clear as pristine. I hope this has helped those seeking the answer to the question above. I know this information as I am doing a controlled assessment all about 'How Factors Affect The Focal Lenght/ Point Of A Convex Lens'. Thankyou for viewing. Samia :)


How to calculate x of a lens knowing only the focal length which is the distance from the lens to the image of sun formed by it correct me if I'm wrong?

1/(focal length) = 1/(distance of object) + 1/(distance of image) is the formula for calculating x of a lens knowing only the focal length which is the distance from the lens to the image of sun formed by it.


Which lens always forms a diminished image?

concave lens formed virtual,erect and diminished image irrespective to the distance between the object and lens.


What is a negative lens is the same as?

If the lens equation yields a negative image distance, then the image is a virtual image on the same side of the lens as the object. If it yields a negative focal length, then the lens is a diverging lens rather than the converging lens in the illustration.
