If an object is placed behind a converging lens, then is it possible for the image distance to be equal to the object distance?
Added by Michael B.
Step 1
A converging lens, also known as a convex lens, has the ability to converge light rays that pass through it. When an object is placed behind a converging lens, the lens forms an image of the object based on the principles of ray optics. Show more…

Is there any position that an object could be placed in front of a negative (diverging) lens that will result in the formation of a real image? Explain.
If an object is four focal lengths away from a converging lens, what is its image distance ?

An image is 4.0 mm in front of converging lens with focal length 5.0 mm. Where is the object? 9.0 mm in front of the lens 9.0 cm behind the lens 20 mm in front of the lens 2.2 mm behind the lens 2.2 mm in front of the lens
