For a concave lens (diverging lens), the image of a real object is always:
AReal, inverted, magnified
BVirtual, erect, diminished, on the same side as the object
CReal, inverted, diminished
DVirtual, inverted, magnified
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Virtual, erect, diminished, on the same side as the object
**Concave (diverging) lens** always forms a **virtual, erect, diminished image** for a real object, on the **same side** as the object, between the lens and its focus. Symmetric to convex mirror's behaviour. Power is negative (in diopters).
