If an object is placed at the focus of a convex lens, where is the image formed?

Ray coming from an object situated at infinity, fall on a convex lens and an image is formed at a distance of 16 cm from the lens. When a concave lens is kept in contact with the convex lens, the image is formed at a distance of 20 cm from the lens combination. Calculate the focal length of the concave lens.

A convex lens of focal length 20cm is placed coaxilly with a convex mirror of radius of curvature 20 cm. The two are kept 15 cm apart. A point object is placed 40 cm in front of the convex lens. Find the position of the image formed by this combination. Draw the ray diagram showing the image formation.

Rohit focussed the image of a candle flame on a white screen using a convex lens. He noted position of candle = 26.0 cm , position of convex lens = 50.0 cm and position of screen = 74.0 cm . (i) What is focal length of convex lens? (ii) Where will the image be formed if he shifts the candle towards the lens at a position of 38 cm ? (iii) Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of image in (ii) above.

A convex lens forms an image of an object on a screen 30 cm from the lens. When the lens is moved 90 cm towards the object, then the image is again formed on the screen. Then, the focal length of the lens is

A student focussed the image of a candle flame on a white screen using a convex lens. He noted down the position of the candle, screen and the lens as under Position of candle = 12.0 cm Position of convex lens = 50.0 cm Position of the screen = 88.0 cm (i) What is the focal length of the convex lens ? (ii) Where will the image be formed if he shifts the candle towards the lens at a position of 31.0 cm . (iii) What will be the nature of the image formed if he further shifts the candle towards the lens ? (iv) Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image in case (iii) as said above.
