Complete the following table. Type of lens Position of object Nature of image Size of image convex Between optic centre and focus convex At focus concave At infinity concave At any distance

Type of lens Position of object Nature of image Size of image convex Between optic centre and focus Virtual and upright Magnified convex At focus Real and inverted Very much magnified concave At infinity Virtual and upright Highly diminished concave At any distance Virtual and upright Diminished A concave lens is thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges. A convex lens is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges. The image formed by a concave lens is always virtual, erect and smaller than the object. The properties of the image formed by convex lens are virtual and upright. The image is greater than the object.
