What is the positive lens is the same as?

The focal point F and focal length f of a positive (convex) lens, a negative (concave) lens, a concave mirror, and a convex mirror. The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.


What is the similarities between concave and convex lenses?

A lens and a mirror both serve to bend light in a particular way. A lens bends the angle at which the light goes, while a mirror reflects the light away.


Which type of telescope uses a convex lens to increase the size of the image being viewed?

What is the relationship between the type and the attitude of an image?

the relationship is that in order to have an image u have to have a special type of attituede like nice and sweet also it ddepends on the type of person and there attitude ^^^ Don't listen to this whatsoever. Now, the attitude of the image describes whether the image is upright or inverted, correct? And the type of image is real or virtual. Now, the relationship between the two is the same for all types of mirrors/lenses. With concave mirrors, when the image is real then it is inverted, whereas when it's virtual it is upright. With convex mirrors when the image is virtual it is also upright, and although I haven't seen a real image on convex mirror ray diagrams, theoretically if the image was real it would be inverted. With a diverging lens if the image is virtual it is upright and as with the convex lens although I have never seen a real image on a ray diagram for a diverging lens it would theoretically be inverted. Finally, with a converging lens if the image is real then it's inverted and if it's virtual it is upright. So, the relationship between attitude and image is this: If the type of image is real, the attitude of the image is inverted. If the type of image is virtual, the attitude of the image is upright.


What is the minimum distance between an object and its real image formed by a convex lens?

Find the smallest distance between the object and a real image, when the focal distance of the lens is2. Relevant equations, whereis the distance of the object from the lens andis the distance of the image.3. The attempt at a solutionI'm not even sure, what I'm trying to do here, since the definition of a real and virtual image is a bit vague to me. But I've got something...Letbe the desired distance. From the equation above we getso. Thenor. We get the same for, so the distance would be

How will you distinguish between a convex and concave lens using a printed piece of paper?

To distinguish between a convex and concave lens using a printed piece of paper, hold the lens against the paper with the curved side facing up. If the text appears larger and clearer through the lens, it is a convex lens. If the text appears smaller and upside down through the lens, it is a concave lens.

When does a concave lens act as convex lens?

A convex lens acts as concave lens when it is kept in a medium whose optical density is higher than the lens itself. And the vice-verse is also true .i.e, a concave lens can act as convex lens too .
