13.4 Images Formed by Lenses
BeginnerMCQMathematicalConceptual20.2k
A schematic diagram showing a vertical double-arrow segment representing a converging lens centered on a horizontal line (the principal axis). On the left side of the lens, focal point tick mark F is labeled at distance f from the lens. Three object locations are marked on the principal axis: Position 1 at 1.5f, Position 2 at 2.0f, and Position 3 at 3.0f from the lens. No rays or image arrows appear.
An object placed at three different positions along the principal axis of a converging lens.
An object is placed on the principal axis of a thin converging lens with focal length \(f\). Measurements of the resulting image are taken with the object located at three distinct distances from the lens: Position 1 at \(d_o = 1.5f\), Position 2 at \(d_o = 2.0f\), and Position 3 at \(d_o = 3.0f\). Which of the following correctly ranks the magnitude of the magnification \(|M|\) of the image produced at each position?
