A virtual, erect and magnified image of an object is to be obtained with a convex lens. For this purpose,the object should be placed:
(a) between 2F and infinity
(b) between F and optical centre
(c) between F and 2F
(d) at F
(b) between F and optical centre
Explanation
When an object is placed at a distance less than the focus i.e., between optical centre, $C$ and focus, $F'$ of a convex lens, then the image formed is virtual, erect, larger than the object (enlarged or magnified), and behind the object (on the left side of the lens).
