Detailed Solution

The magnification produced by a concave lens is always less than 1.
A concave lens is that which diverges a straight beam of light from a source to a single point.
The magnification of the image for the spherical lenses is
= hiho=vu
Here, M = magnification of the image, hi = height of the image and ho = height of the object.
The magnification produced by a concave lens is always smaller than the object. Therefore, the magnification produced by the concave lens is always less than 1.
