Which is true about lenses?

Solution

A diverging lens divergs the ray so rays doesnot meet actually. hence they will always make virtual
image.

but converging lens makes real images. Except if object placed in between lens and focus.

so coverging lens produces both virtual and real images.

ANs.

A converging lens can produce a virtual image or a real image, depending on object distance.
A diverging lens can produce only virtual images.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

diverging lens has negative focal length but converging lens has positive focal length.

------------------------------------------

Real images are formed when refracted rays meet actually.

so rays are on opposite side of lens after refraction hence real image can only be produced on
opposite side only.

If a image is formed on the opposite side that means refracted rays meets there than image can not
be virtual.

so virtual images are formed when extended part of refraction rays meet. hence extended part will come
to same side of lens .

so virtual images are only formed on same side.

Ans. Real images form on the side opposite the object, and virtual images form on the same side as the object.
