The correct option.
Answer to Problem 28R
Option C) away from its optical axis.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
A concave lens is thinner at the inside and thicker at the outer ends of the lens. It is called a diverging lens.
A convex lens is thicker at the inside and thinner at the outer ends of the lens. It is called as converging lens.
According to the given figure, the lens given is the diverging lens or concave lens. So, the lens bends the light away from its optical axis. Hence, the correct option is C.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is C) away from its optical axis.
