Physics SC1 ]For my experiment I am going to try and find out how the position of a lens affects the image for a convex lens. I intend to show how the position and nature of the image can be worked out using ray diagrams. I will use various formulas to aid me in figuring out the focal lengths. In my preliminary work I figured out that the focal length of my lens is 10cm. I did this by simply placing the lens and a screen in front of a window and moving the screen back and forth until the image of the window appeared focused (the edges were sharp and definitive) on the screen and then measuring the distance of the screen from the lens.
