Question

g 23.) [1 point] Which statement about images (formed by spherical mirrors and thin lenses) is true? Group of answer choices All of the other statements listed are false. Thin lenses always produce real images because they transmit light. A virtual image cannot be seen by the human eye. Spherical mirrors always produce real images because they reflect light. A real image cannot be formed on a screen.

Answer 1

Real images are always inverted, but can be larger or smaller than the object. Virtual images are always upright and cannot be projected.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is true about images formed by spherical mirrors and thin lenses is: Real images are always inverted, but they can be either larger or smaller than the object. Virtual images, on the other hand, are always upright and cannot be projected.

For example, when a slide projector forms an image larger than the slide, it is a real image. On the other hand, a camera makes an image smaller than the object being photographed, which is also a real image.

Virtual images can only be seen through an additional lens that forms a real image.

Answer 2

Thin lenses always produce real images because they transmit light.

Step-by-step explanation:

This has been shown in Ray tracing experiments.
