Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are characteristics of a concave lens? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Diverging in nature, Negative focal length, Forms only virtual images

A concave lens diverges light rays, has a negative focal length, and always forms virtual, erect, and diminished images regardless of object position.

2multiple choice

A concave lens always forms which type of image?

Show answer

Virtual, erect and diminished

A concave lens always forms a virtual, erect, and diminished image regardless of the position of the object. This is because concave lenses diverge light rays.

3multiple correct

Which of the following statements about magnification are correct? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Magnification = v/u, Negative magnification indicates inverted image, If m > 1, image is enlarged

Magnification m = v/u = height of image/height of object. It is dimensionless. Negative m indicates inverted image, positive m indicates erect image. m > 1 means enlarged image.

4multiple choice

The lens formula is:

Show answer

1/f = 1/v - 1/u

The lens formula relates focal length (f), object distance (u), and image distance (v). It is derived from geometry and applies to both convex and concave lenses.
