When viewing a distant object, the ciliary muscles in the eye relax, causing the lens to flatten. This allows the lens to focus the incoming light rays from the distant object onto the retina for a clear image to be formed.
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 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.
The magnification of a lens depends on the object distance and image distance from the lens. The magnification formula is given by M = -image distance/object distance. Without knowing the object distance, it is not possible to calculate the magnification of the lens with a focal length of 2 inches.
The image distance is the distance from the lens to where the image is formed, while the object distance is the distance from the lens to the object. In general, for real images, the image distance is different from the object distance. For virtual images, the image distance is negative and the object distance is positive.

A diverging lens. In this case, the object distance will be equal to the image distance but with opposite sign.
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')
The thin lens equation is a relation that describes how the distance of an object from a thin lens, the distance of the image from the lens, and the focal length of the lens are related. The equation is given by 1/f = 1/do + 1/di, where f is the focal length of the lens, do is the object distance, and di is the image distance.
As the object distance increases, the image distance also increases. This relationship is governed by the lens or mirror equation, which shows that when the object is moved farther from the lens or mirror, the image is also formed farther from the lens or mirror.
The focal length of a lens is related to the object distance and image distance by the lens equation: 1/f = 1/do + 1/di, where f is the focal length, do is the object distance, and di is the image distance. This equation describes how the lens focuses light rays from an object at a certain distance to form an image at a specific distance.
The lens focal length formula used to calculate the focal length of a camera lens is: Focal Length (Distance between lens and image sensor) / (1 (Distance between lens and object) / (Distance between lens and object))
Moving the object away from the lens increases the object-image distance. According to the thin lens equation, as the object-image distance increases, the image distance increases incrementally more than the object distance. This results in a smaller image size due to the inverse relationship between image size and image distance.
