8. A lens produces a sharply-focused, inverted image on a screen. What will you see on the screen if the lens is removed? 1. The image will be as it was, but much dimmer. 2. The image will be right-side-up and sharp. 3. The image will be right-side-up and blurry. 4. The image will be inverted and blurry. 5. There will be no image at all.
