QUESTION IMAGE
Question
a ray diagram shows an object placed in front of a concave lens beyond 2f. which are characteristics of the image that is produced?
o real and inverted
o virtual and inverted
o upright and larger than the object
o upright and smaller than the object
A concave lens always forms virtual, upright, and diminished (smaller than the object) images regardless of the object position. Real and inverted images are formed by concave mirrors or convex lenses under certain conditions. Virtual and inverted is not a characteristic of concave - lens images. Upright and larger than the object is for convex lenses when the object is within the focal length. So for a concave lens with an object placed beyond \(2F\), the image is upright and smaller than the object.
