A horizontal dashed line represents the principal axis. On the left side of the axis, a vertical upward-pointing arrow labeled 'Object' stands on the axis. To the right of the object, a thin vertical double-arrow segment represents a converging lens. An opaque rectangular block covers the upper half of the lens above the principal axis. To the right of the lens, a vertical line labeled 'Screen' stands perpendicular to the principal axis. No light rays, focal point markers, or image arrows are drawn. No other labels, lines, text, or axes appear.
Setup showing an illuminated object, a partially covered converging lens, and a screen.
An illuminated object is positioned in front of a thin converging lens, forming a sharp, real image on a screen placed on the opposite side. An opaque card is then placed so that it completely covers the top half of the lens. Which of the following correctly describes the image formed on the screen after the card is placed and provides the correct physical reasoning?
