A converging lens forms a real, inverted and magnified image when the object is placed

  • A. beyond 2F
  • B. between F and 2F
  • C. between the lens and F
  • D. at F

Explanation

With the object between one and two focal lengths from the lens, the image forms beyond 2F on the other side, real, inverted and larger, which is the arrangement used in a projector. Beyond 2F the image would be diminished, as in a camera. Inside F the image becomes virtual, upright and magnified, which is the magnifying glass.
