Question

An object, pointing upwards, is placed at the focal point F1 of a thin converging lens. The diagram shows two principal rays from the tip of the arrow to the lens. Where does the image of the arrow form? focal point F2 an infinite distance from the lens focal point F1 halfway between the lens and F2
