Question

Does a concave lens make things bigger or smaller?


Open in App
Solution

  1. Light rays traveling through a concave lens are refracted, causing them to bend away from the principal axis.
  2. The resulting image will appear to be further away and much smaller than the actual object.
  3. Therefore, concave lenses make things smaller.
