THE figure above shows diagram for the correction of shortsightedness. If the unbroken lines represents light rays from the object and the broken lines the refracted rays through the lens, which of these is correct

A. A

B. B

C. C

D. D

E. E

Detailed Solution

The concave lens used in correcting short sightedness simply DIVERGES the light to the correct extent so that it is now focused on the retina.
