(N/A) $(i)$ The magnification of the image formed is unity (or $1$).
$(ii)$ The image formed is $(1)$ real and $(2)$ inverted,and it is formed at the same position as the object.
$(iii)$ The distance between the object and the optical centre of the lens is called the focal length of the lens.

At what distance should an object be placed to obtain its real,inverted and of same size image as the object by a convex lens?

$A$ convex lens has a focal length of $25\, cm$. Calculate the distance of the object from the lens if the image is to be formed on the opposite side of the lens at a distance of $75\, cm$ from the lens. What will be the nature of the image?

$A$ convex lens forms a real and inverted image of a needle at a distance of $50\, cm$ from it. Where is the needle placed in front of the convex lens if the image is equal to the size of the object? Also,find the power of the lens.

Where should an object be placed in front of a convex lens to form a real,inverted,and same size image?

An object of height $5 \, cm$ is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a concave lens of focal length $10 \, cm$. If the distance of the object from the optical centre of the lens is $20 \, cm$,determine the position,nature,and size of the image formed using the lens formula.
