They slide the smaller box to adjust the focus so that they can capture the image of any objects they want. They were very happy as they had successfully done their work. When they looked through open face of the smaller box, they can see image of object on the screen.What type of image Shaunak and Shaurya had observed on the screen while they looked through open face of the smaller box?
