Question

A virtual image of an object is formed by a concave lens. The lens is then coupled (placed in contact) with a convex lens. A virtual image is again formed. The image, now

• A. Remains in the original position
• B. Shifts towards the lens system
• C. Shifts away from the lens system
• D. Either shift towards or away from the lens system, depending on whether, the convex or the concave lens faces the object.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Shifts away from the lens system

The image is formed away from the lens because the convex lens tries to converge the rays.
