Introductory Message
Welcome to Science 10!

The LearningActivity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of the

Schools Division of Guimaras and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western Visayas
through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD). This is
developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents and responsible adults)
in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Basic Education
Curriculum.

The Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional materials aimed to guide the

learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the contextualized
resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in acquiring the lifelong
learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and employment.

For learning facilitator:

The Science Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the leaching-learning
activities specified in each Most Essential Learning Competency (MELC) with minimal
or no face-to-face encounter between you and learner. This will be made available to
the learners with the references/links to ease the independent learning.

For the learner:

The Science Activity Sheet is developed to help you continue learning even if
you are not in school. This learning material provides you with meaningful and
engaging activities for independent learning. Being an active learner, carefully read
and understand the instructions then perform the activities and answer the
assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator on the agreed schedule.

Images Formed by Lenses

I. Learning Competency with Code

Predict the qualitative characteristics orientation, type and magnification of
the image formed by curved mirrors and lenses. (S10FE-IIg-50)

Support Competency:
Predict the qualitative characteristics (location, orientation, type, and
magnification) of images formed by concave and convex lenses.

II. Background Information for Learners

A spherical lens is a curved piece of glass or some other transparent
material that can refract light. It may be concave (diverging) and convex
(converging). A concave lens is thinner at the center than at the edges while a
convex lens is thicker at the middle than at the edges.
Ray diagrams are used to describe the location, size and kind of image
formed. A lens has two surfaces therefore it has two focal points, F and F’, and
the center of the lens, V between them. The focal points have the same distance
from the midpoint of the lens O. The distance between the lens’ midpoint and
its focal point is called the focal length. A lens has an imaginary point referred
to as 2F that is twice as far from the center of the lens as the focal point is.

IV. Exercises / Activities

A. The images formed in lenses can be located using ray diagramming method.
There are 3 most useful rays for locating images in concave and convex
lenses. These rays are described on page 198-199 of Science 10 Learners
Material. Study how these rays are used and perform Activity 8 (Are you L-O-
S-T After Refraction) on pages 200-202.

B. After constructing the ray diagram, copy Table 9. Location, Orientation, Size
and Type of Image Formed by Lenses on page 203 of Science 10 Learners
Material.

C. Refer to the diagram that you have constructed and your answers to Table 9
then answer the following questions:

1. How does the image change its size and location as the object comes
nearer the convex lens?

Location, Orientation, Size and Type of Image Formed by Lenses

1.As the object comes nearer the convex lens, the image appears farther and
magnified. As it comes closer to the convex lens (between F and V), the image appears
upright and becomes virtual.

2. For all locations of object in front of a concave lens, the image formed is always
upright, reduced, virtual and located between F and V.
3. A concave lens cannot form real image because a real image is formed by
intersection of real refracted rays, and concave lens spread out the real rays.

Reflection. Answers vary.
