Question 76552 • Reed Fall 2026 Physical Science 2nd Semester (7th Hour)
A concave lens causes light rays to spread out, so the image appears to come from a point on the same side of the lens as the object. This makes the image virtual and always right-side up. It is also smaller than the object, so the statements that it is real, larger, or upside down do not describe it.
