What kind of image is formed by a convex lens when the object is less than a focal length away from the object?

A) an image that is always smaller than the object

B) none, because the lens is too close to the object

C) a virtual image

D) an inverted real image

C

Explanation:

An object that is less than a focal length from a convex lens forms a virtual, magnified image. When the object is closer to a convex lens than the focal point, its rays do not pass through the focal point to form an image on the opposite side of the lens.

it doesn't. it was imagined up in the middle ages.
