Lenses enable individuals to view objects. A Converging lens has a positive focal length, which facilitates the convergence of the exiting rays. While, diverging lenses have a negative focal length, which facilitates the divergence of the exiting rays.

Is el chichon Mexico converging plate boundary or a diverging plate boundary?
it is on a convergent plate boundry
Is Mt Mazama located on diverging plates?
No. Mount Mazama is associated with a subduction zone, which is formed by converging plates.
Distinguish between converging and diverging tectonic plates in a table form?
The Earth's crust is broken up into several lithospheric or tectonic plates. These plates are constantly moving atop the Earth's mantle (semi-solid layer of molten rocks). Based upon their motion, tectonic plates are referred to as converging or diverging. Converging tectonic plates move towards each other and form convergent boundary. Diverging tectonic plates move away from each other and form divergent boundary.
Are concave lenses converging or diverging?
Diverging
Do ray diagrams apply to converging lenses and diverging?
Yes
What is different between converging and diverging lenses used in microscopes?
because they are
How are nearsightedness and farsightedness corrected?
We use corrective lenses in spectacles. Near sight is corrected with diverging lenses and far sightedness with converging lenses.
Is 2 diopters a positive power?
If it is written as +2 Diopters it is positive, ie a converging lens. If it is written as -2 Diopters it is negative, ie a diverging lens. Diverging lenses are prescribed for myopia, or short-sightedness. Converging lenses are prescribed for hypermetropia or long-sightedness.
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.
Does a camera use a diverging lens?
All cameras have converging lenses instead of diverging because they need a real image and not a virtual one to capture a photo.
Which of converging or diverging lenses are thicker in the center than on the edges?
Converging. Think of burning ants with a magnifying glass. A magnifying glass is thicker in the middle and it makes the sun's light converge on the ants.
What is another name for a convex lens?
Concave and convex can refer the types of lenses used to treat refractive errors in the eyes. Concave is another word for myopic lens and convex is another name for a hyperopic lens also known as nearsighted and farsighted respectively
What is the difference between converging lens and diverging lens?
converging lens show virtual and real images while diverging shows virtual images.
Do volcanoes form on diverging or converging plate boundaries more?
Most are found on converging
What is the difference between a diverging circuit and a converging circuit?
A diverging circuit is one neuron sending impulses to multiple post-synaptic neurons. A converging circuit is many neurons converging on one post-synaptic membrane.
