To solve the problem step by step, we will use the lens formula and magnification formula to find the characteristics of the image produced by the concave lens. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Size of the object (height, h) = 3.0 cm - Object distance (u) = -14 cm (the negative sign indicates that the object is placed in front of the lens) - Focal length of the concave lens (f) = -21 cm (the negative sign indicates that it is a concave lens) ### Step 2: Use the lens formula ...
