(2) In the experiment, in order to make the centers of the candle, convex lens and light screen approximately at the same height, a section of candle should be cut off to make the image in the center of the light screen;
(3) In order to make the light screen accept the image of candle flame, the order of candle flame, light screen and convex lens on the table is candle, convex lens and light screen, so the convex lens is in the middle;
(4) The focal length of the convex lens is 15cm, the object distance is 12cm, and u < f, which is an upright magnified virtual image. The optical screen can't accept virtual images, so the optical screen can't accept real images at any position.
(5) When the convex lens becomes a virtual image, the object image is on the same side of the convex lens, so the eyes should observe the candle through the convex lens on one side of the screen, so the arrangement order is candle, lens and eye.
So the answer is: (1) The focal length of convex lens is too large or too small, which is not convenient for operating experiments; (2) Make the centers of the candle, the convex lens and the light screen approximately at the same height, and make the image at the center of the light screen; (3) convex lens; (4) When the object distance is less than the focal length, the convex lens becomes a virtual image, and the virtual image cannot be presented on the screen; (5) candles, lenses and eyes;
