The image produced by a converging lens has characteristics that are dependent upon the location of the object. The general Location, the Orientation (upright or inverted), the relative Size (smaller, larger, or the same size as the object), and the Type (real or virtual) will all be affected by the location of the object.

There are two similar versions of this question. Here is one of those versions:
 

Version 1:

The red arrow represents an object located in the region between 2F1 and the focal point (F1) of a converging lens. Identify the characteristics of the image that is produced -– location, orientation, size and type.
 

 

The given diagram shows the object located in the region between the 2F point and the focal point of a converging lens. When the object is located on the opposite side of the lens beyond the 2F point; it will be inverted; it will be larger than the object; and it will be a real image. The image that you pick must have these characteristics.
