Answer:

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Explanation:

Let's analyze each statement proposed:

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.  --> TRUE. In fact, depending on the position of the object relative to the lens, both converging and diverging lenses can produce an image which is upright.

B. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce real images.  --> FALSE. In fact, diverging lenses can produce virtual images only, because the rays of light are not focused into a single point.

C. Parallel rays converge into a single point at the focal point of a diverging lens, whereas parallel rays diverge at the focal point of a converging lens and spread out.  --> FALSE. It is actually the opposite: in a diverging lens, parallel rays diverge and spread out, while in a converging lens, parallel rays converge into a single point (the focal point)

D. Diverging lenses will produce images behind the lens, and converging lenses will produce images in front of the lens.  --> FALSE. It's actually the opposite: the image produced by a diverging lens is in front of the lens, while the image produced by a converging lens is behind the lens.

Av Speed = total distance / time time = 32+ 46 / 2.7 = 28 m/sec
Av velocity = total displacement / time total = S / t
