Can a concave lens form a real image?
Never. Since the rays coming from a real object will always be diverging. The action of a concave lens is diverging action. Hence the already diverged rays will be dirverged further. Hence no chance of convergence. Only converging rays would form a real image. Hence the answer, NEVER.
What devices use lenses to produce a real image?
Convex lenses are used for glasses since it can bend light to provide better eyesight. Their also used for cameras, telescopes or science purposes. Also you have double convex lens in your eye.
Which lens always produces an image that is upright?
Concave lens (diverging) produces an upright image that is virtual. Although to create a real upright image would require 2 convex (converging) lens with a distance of their respective focal lengths between them.
Use of convex mirror?
For a wider field of view in the reflection. In the middle of the mirror, the mirror is facing directly towards you. But nearer the edges it is tilted to the side or above and so you can see things that you would have to turn or tilt an ordinary flat mirror to see.

Would you use a convex lens or a concave lens to magnify an object?
Magnifying glasses use convex lenses
What types of lens would you use to magnify your view of a butterfly?
a concave lense
What type of lens would you use to magnify an object?
You would use a convex lens.
How would and object look if you looked at it through a convex and concave mirror at the same time?

You want to manignify a butterfly so that you can see the colorful scales on its wings what would you use a concave lens or a convex lens?
i guess it doesnt really matter. my magnifying glass is a convex lens so yaaaa. well that's all i got cuz this website don't even no what a concave or convex lens is.
Is a heptagon concave?
If it were a perfect heptagon then it would be convex. If it had any indentations then it would be concave.
Is a quadrilateral convex or concave?
A normal 2-D quadrilateral would be neither convex or concave. There are three-dimensional quadrilaterals, such as prisms, but it would depend on the shape.
Differentiate between concave and convex mirror?
The outer curved part is coated with mercury as the inner would reflect light in case of concave mirror. Whereas the inner is coated as to make the outer to act as reflector in case of convex mirror. Concave mirror can give both real and virtual images for a real object depending on the location of object. But convex on the other hand can give only virtual image with a real object irrespective of the position of the object. Next, concave mirror can be used as shaving mirror. Also used to converge the parallel beam of light. Convex mirror is best used as rear view mirror in case of vehicles.
Is magnifying lens a convex or a concave lens?
A magnifying lens is convex i.e. it bulges outwards. A concave lens would make objects appear smaller.
Is convex and concave mirrors also known as spherical mirrors?
Yes convex and concave mirrors are also known as spherical mirrors. If mercury coating is made on the convex side of the spherical then mirror is known as concave mirror. If mercury coating is made on the concave side the convex portion would reflect the light fallen so it is named as convex mirror. Actual just a small part of the sphere is taken out and this would act as the spherical mirror.
What is the different between concave and convex mirror light?
Concave mirror would have the surface curved out get coated with mercury hence curved in surface would reflect the rays fallen on. But convex mirror would have the surface curved in get coated with mercury hence curved out surface would reflect the rays fallen on. Concave mirror would have both converging and diverging ability. When light coming from an object placed at a distance higher than its focal length right from the pole of the mirror, converging takes place. But the object lies in between pole and the focus diverging action. But in convex mirror irrespective of the placement of the object only diverging phenomenon. Concave mirror used as shaving mirror and dentists too use them Convex mirror is used as rear view mirror in case of vehicles near by the driver.
What is a concave quadrilateral?
A concave quadrilateral would be a non-convex quadrilateral. * * * * * Also known as delta or arrowhead or chevron.
