Question

Fill in the blank.

The image produced by a concave lens is __________________.

• A. always virtual and reduced in size
• B. always virtual and enlarged
• C. always real
• D. sometimes real, sometimes virtual

Answer 1

The correct option is A always virtual and reduced in size

Correct answer is (a).

Rays by a concave lens always diverged and the emerging rays do not intersect but seems to intersect on the incidence side by tracing backwards the emerging rays. Hence concave lens images are always virtual and reduced in size.
