In which of the following, the image of an object placed at infinity will be highly diminished and point sized ?

A

Concave mirror only

B

Convex mirror only

C

Convex lens ony

D

Concave mirror, convex mirror, concave lens and convex lens

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The incident rays which comes from an object placed at infinity will be parallel and the rays parallel to the principal axis, after reflection/refraction by concave mirror, convex mirror, concave lens and convex lens, will pass or appear to pass through the principal focus. Hence, image will be highly diminished and point sized.
