An object is placed at a distance 24 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 8 cm.
(i) What is the nature of the image so formed ?
(ii) Calculate the distance of the image from the lens.
(iii) Calculate the magnification of the image.

Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the lens formula and the magnification formula.

### Step 1: Identify the given values
- Object distance (u) = -24 cm (the negative sign indicates that the object is on the same side as the incoming light)
- Focal length (f) = 8 cm (positive for a convex lens)

### Step 2: Use the lens formula
The lens formula is given by:
