Answer;

D. Upright and smaller than the object

Explanation;

  • A concave lens is thinner at its center than at its edges, and is used to correct short-sightedness. A concave lens always forms a virtual image of an object.
  • The image formed by a concave lens cannot be obtained on a screen, since the image is always virtual.
  • Concave lens and convex mirror forms virtual but diminished image of the object.
  • Concave lenses cause light to spread out thus resulting in a smaller image for the viewer.
