Question 7 • Crowley Credit Recovery Physics B

Which statement describes characteristics of a concave lens?

Answer
A
A concave lens diverges light and curves inward.
B
A concave lens diverges light and curves outward.
C
A concave lens converges light and curves inward.
D
A concave lens converges light and curves outward.

Explanation

A concave lens is thinner in the middle than at the edges, so its surfaces curve inward. It spreads parallel light rays apart, meaning it diverges light. Therefore, “A concave lens diverges light and curves inward” is correct.
