Question 16

Given below are two statements : 

Statement (I) : When an object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave lens, image is formed at the centre of curvature of the lens on the other side. 

Statement (II) : Concave lens always forms a virtual and erect image. 

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Statement I: A concave lens is a diverging lens. For any real object position, it forms a diminished image located between the optical center and the principal focus on the same side as the object. It does not form an image at the center of curvature on the other side $$\implies \text{Statement I is false}$$.

Statement II: For any real object, a concave lens always diverges the incident light rays, forming an image from back-projected virtual rays $$\implies \text{Statement II is true}$$.
