The magnifying glass
In a magnifying glass lens diagram, the object would be between the centre of the lans and the focal point
There is no image actualy being projected onto anything when using a magnifying glass, (Other than your eye) it is simply refracting light rays from the object being seen so that it seems bigger
A magnifying glass uses only a single convex lens, encased by a metal circle and attached to a handle
In a magnifying glass, the image seen is virtual, magnified, upright and on the same side. This is why a magnifying glass only works when it is held very close you the eye, however if it is held too close, the image then seen is upside down
