Question 9

One-half of a convex lens is covered with a black paper. Will this lens produce a complete image of the object? Verify your answer experimentally. Explain your observations.

Answer

Yes, The convex lens will form a complete image of an object, even if its one half is covered with black paper. It can be  experimentally verified:.



In first Case 

If the upper half of the lens is covered then a ray of light coming from the object will be refracted by the lower half of the lens and these rays meet at the other side of the lens to form the image of an object,

In Second Case

When the lower half of the lens is covered then a ray of light coming from the object is refracted by the upper half of the lens and these rays meet at the other side of the lens to form the image of the given object.
