Is the type of image formed by a convex lens depend on the location of the object relative to the optical axis?

No it isn't, because the type of image a convex lens forms depends on where the object is relative to the focal point of the lens.


How is an convex image formed?

A convex image is formed when light reflects off at least a roughly convex surface. It spreads a beam of light out in multiple directions instead of reflecting it in a straight line, so the reflective image looks larger, or, namely, convex.


How are images formed by a convex lens?

A convex Lens forms a real, inverted image which can be displayed on a screen placed before the lens i.e, opposite the direction the light rays are coming from. A diminished image is formed at the focus when light rays from an object are focus on the screen.


O What kind of image do you see using a convex mirror?

we see a diminished and virtual image in a convex mirror provided the object is not kept on the focus of the mirror.


How can you distinguish between a plane mirror concave mirror and a convex mirror by merely looking at the mirror?

If our image is real and inverted and smaller than the object ,then it is a concave mirror; if the image is virtual and erect and larger than the object,then it is a convex mirror; if the image is of the same size as of the object,it is a plane mirror. that is how we can distinguish or identify which of the given mirrors are what. BUT if the angle is very small you cannot tell Plane is flat, convex it curves outwards and concave it curves inwards.

How would you describes the image formed by a convex mirror?

The image formed by a convex mirror is upright and larger than the object.


How is the image formed by a concave lens similar to the image formed by a convex mirror?

In a concave lens the object always forms a virtual image. The convex lens also forms a virtual image.


Can you obtain the image of an object formed by a convex mirror on a screen?

nope. bcoz the image is formed behind the mirror.


What kind of image is formed by a convex lens when the object at infinity?

The image produced is a real image if the object is located at infinity and the lens is a convex lens. The produced image can actually be placed on a screen and photographed.


Where virtual image is formed?

in case of convex lense, when u place the object between focul length and pole, virtual image is formed behind the object at 25cm...


When the object is placed at 2F in front of convex lens image is formed at?

In convex lens, the object beyond 2f is;image between2f and f.inverted image.smaller than the object.real image.in concave lens, the object beyond 2f is;smaller than that of the objecterectvirtual image


The image formed by convex spherical mirror will always be what?

upright and smaller than the object


What image is formed by a convex mirror?

The image is always virtual,smaller,and erect at any distance in which the object is placed.


The image formed by a convex mirror?

The image formed by the convex mirror is virtual, erect and diminished.


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

It should appear the same.


Function of the convex lens?

Function of Convex lens: Convex lens causes parallel rays of light to converge after refraction. Also the following can also be considered as the functions of convex lens: 1.when the object is at infinity, convex lens forms the image at focus which is real and inverted. 2.when the object is beyond 2F, image is formed between F and 2F which is real, inverted and diminished. 3.when the object is at 2F ,image is formed at 2F,which is real , inverted and of same size. 4.when the object is between F and 2F, image is formed beyond 2F which is real,inverted and magnified. 5.when the object is at F,image is at infinity which is real inverted and very much magnified. 6.when the object is between F and C, image is formed beyond 2F and behind the object which is virtual, erect and magnified.
