Description
๐ Explore
See how a convex lens and a flat mirror form images.
๐ฎ Try It
Drag the object closer to or farther from the optic. In Lens mode, change the focal length and show rays, 2F points or a ruler. Compare image distance, magnification, orientation and whether the image is real or virtual.
๐ฏ Your Mission
In Lens mode, find one object position that gives an enlarged image and another that gives a smaller image. Use the ray diagram and magnification readout to explain the difference.
๐ Real-World Connection
Camera and eyeglass lenses control where light forms an image.
