Question

Draw the ray diagram in each case to show the position and nature of the image formed when the object is placed:
In front of a concave lens

Answer 1

Prefer the above diagram for your answers

Answer 2

Concave lens

Explanation:

When the object is placed in front of the concave lens, the light rays diverge after refraction through the lens. So the light rays would appear to converge on the same side of the lens as the object, between the focus point and the optical centre of the lens. The image so formed will be virtual, erect and diminished.

Please refer the attached picture for the ray diagram.
