the lens or system of lenses in a telescope or microscope that is nearest the object being viewed
The object distance of a convex lens is measured from the optical center to the object, while for a concave lens, it is measured from the optical center to the object along the path of light. In general, the object distance for a convex lens is positive, while for a concave lens, it is negative since the object distances are measured on the opposite sides of the lens.
A virtual image of an object through a concave lens is always upright, reduced in size, and appears on the same side of the lens as the object. Its location depends on the distance of the object from the lens and the focal length of the lens.
The eyepiece of the telescope doesn't magnify the object, but it does magnifythe real image of the object that forms at the focus of the primary lens or mirror.
When an object approaches a convex lens, the image formed can either be real or virtual depending on the object's distance from the lens. If the object is beyond the lens' focal point, a real image forms on the opposite side of the lens. If the object is within the focal point, then a virtual image is formed on the same side as the object.
The 'object lens' in a compound microscope is closest to the object being examined.
The image depends on the distance the object is from the lens.
The distance from a converging lens to the object is called the object distance. It is denoted by the symbol "u" and is measured along the principal axis of the lens. The object distance affects the size and location of the image formed by the lens.
The object being examined is placed directly under the objective lens of a compound microscope. The objective lens is the lens closest to the specimen and is used to magnify the image of the object.
Adjust the distance between the hand lens and the object you are examining until the object comes into clear focus. Move the hand lens closer or farther from your eye to bring the object into focus.

To create a smaller image of an object using a convex lens, place the object between the lens and the lens' focal point. This will result in an inverted, smaller image being formed on the opposite side of the lens. Adjust the distance between the lens and object to control the size of the image.
