28. Based on the illustration, how will you form an image which is larger than the object? A. An enlarged image can be formed by moving the object away from the surface of the convex mirror. B. An enlarged image can be formed by moving the object closer to the surface of the convex mirror. C. An enlarged image can be formed if the object is placed at the same distance as the focal length of the convex mirror. D. An enlarged image cannot be formed because a convex mirror always produces a smaller image no matter where the object is placed in front of the mirror.

Lulu looks at her image in a makeup mirror. lt is enlarged when she is close to the mirror. As she backs away, the image becomes larger, then impossible to identify when she is 30.0 cm from the mirror, then upside down when she is beyond 30.0 cm, and finally small, clear, and upside down when she is much farther from the mirror, (i) Is the mirror (a) convex, (b) plane, or (c) concave? (ii) Is the magnitude of its focal length (a) 0, (b) 15.0 cm, (c) 30.0 cm, (d) 60.0 cm, or (e) ?
A lens is used to examine an object across a room. Is the lens probably being used as a simple magnifier? Explain in terms of focal length, the image, and magnification.
A virtual image is formed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror having a radius of curvature of 40.0 cm. (a) Find the position of the object. (b) What is the magnification of the mirror?
An object is placed in front of a converging lens at an object distance of twice the focal length of the lens. Sketch a ray diagram and compare the image and object distances. Repeat with two more ray diagrams, using different focal lengths and still making the object distance twice the focal length. Can you draw any conclusions by comparing the object distance and the image distance?
The image produced by the microscope in Figure 2.38 cannot be projected. Could extra lenses or mirrors project it? Explain.
