If an object is placed at a distance of 15cm from a convex lens of focal length 20cm, the image formed by the lens will have following characteristics.
  1. The image will be virtual and erect.
  2. It will be a magnified image; this means that the size of the image will be larger than the size of the object.
  3. The position of the image will be at the same side where the object is placed.
