What are the three laws governing light passing through a converging lens?

- Any incident ray traveling parallel to the principal axis of a converging lens will refract through the lens and travel through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens.
- Any incident ray traveling through the focal point on the way to the lens will refract through the lens and travel parallel to the principal axis.
- An incident ray that passes through the center of the lens will in effect continue in the same direction that it had when it entered the lens.

What is light refraction for kids?
the bending of light when passing through an object
What is conoscopic illumiation?
Converging light.
What produces an image of a specimen by passing visible light through it?
Its a Light Microscope! (=
Why can you see light passing through a colloid but not a solution?
Light is scattered by colloids.
How does light beam spread?
depends on what kind of light wave there are diverging beams that diverge there are parallel beams that... are parallel and there are converging beams that... converge to 1 point
What is converging lens?
A converging lens is thin at the ends and thick in the middle. It is called converging because the rays of light passing through it, if parallel, converge at a point the other side. A magnifying glass uses a converging lens.

What happens to light after it passes through a converging lens and after it passes through a diverging lens?
becomes more converging
A converging lens changes the direction of light through the process of?
A converging lens changes the direction of light through the process of refraction. A lens is a device that uses refraction to bend light to form an image.
Converging lens changes the direction of light through the process of what?
REFLECTION
How is the path of light through a converging lens like the path of light through a prism?
There are two main areas of similarity. The first is that light passes through a converging lens as well as through a prism. This may sound trivial, but light will not pass through a block of wood! The second similarity is that in both situations the rays of light will be refracted: they will be bent at the boundaries between the different media.
Why is a concave lens called a divergent lens?
A convex lens is wider at the edges than it is in the center. Therefore, it is a converging lens.
What effect has the condenser lens on light rays passing through it?
The condenser adjusts the amount of light passing through the specimen.
Can you split white light by passing through it through a prison?
You can split white light into a spectrum of its component wavelengths by passing it through a prism, not a prison.
Why a convex lens is called converging lens?
when a beam of light is passed through the convex lens it converges the beam of ligth.hence convex lens is called a converging lens.
