A converging lens is a simple magnifying glass when the object is within one focal length of the lens. The image is then virtual, magnified, and right-side up.

Why diverging lens cannot be used as magnifying glass?
a diverging lens can not be used as a magnifying glass becuase a diverging lens( concave) lens diverges the the rays cousing the image to not be erect, but upside down. While magnifying glass ( convex) is used as it is a converging lens which focuses the rays in one point of an objects making it magnifies and erect.( right way up)
What is the difference between converging lens and diverging lens?
converging lens show virtual and real images while diverging shows virtual images.
What happens to light after it passes through a converging lens and after it passes through a diverging lens?
becomes more converging
Which of the following is accurate in describing converging and diverging lenses?
If a single lens forms a virtual image of an object, thenthe lens could be either a diverging or a converging lens.Which statement about a single thin lens is correctA diverging lens always produces a virtual upright image.
Diverging lenses always produce images that are upright?
Diverging lenses always produce images that are upright. The images are virtually reduced and trapped within the lens which will act as a magnifying glass. .

A magnifying glass is an example of?
converging lens.
A magnifying glass is also called what?
The answer is both convex and converging
What is the name for the glass in a magnifying glass?
a lens..a converging lens to be exact
What is the difference between converging lens and diverging lens?
converging lens show virtual and real images while diverging shows virtual images.
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.

Diverging lenses always produce images that are upright. The images are virtually reduced and trapped within the lens which will act as a magnifying glass. .
The function of the lens is to?
The function of lens is to to form an image of an object by converging or diverging rays of light from the object.
