Where should an object be placed from a convex lens to from an image of the same size ? Can it happen in case of a concave lens ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The object has to be placed at a distance `2 f` from the lens. No, it cannot happen in case of a concave lens, as image formed is always smaller in size.
