Image Formation by Lenses starts at 8 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Image Formation by Lenses. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 11
A lens forms an image 15 cm from the lens when the object is 10 cm from the lens. What is the magnification produced by the lens?
A lens has a focal length of -20 cm. What type of lens is it?
A student places an object 5 cm from a concave lens of focal length 10 cm. Where will the image be formed?
A student uses a convex lens to project an image of a candle on a screen. The image is inverted and smaller than the candle. Where is the candle placed relative to the lens?
An object is placed 10 cm from a convex lens of focal length 15 cm. Where is the image formed?
Calculate the image distance if an object is placed 30 cm from a convex lens of focal length 10 cm.
Describe the image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at a distance less than the focal length.
Describe the nature, position, and size of the image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed between F and the optical center.
Explain why a concave lens cannot form a real image of a real object.
If the magnification produced by a lens is +2, what does the positive sign indicate?
If the object distance (u) is -12 cm and the image distance (v) is +24 cm for a lens, calculate the focal length.
If the power of a lens is +5 D, what is its focal length in meters?
State the sign convention for the focal length of a concave lens.
