What is a source of diverging light rays?
A diverging lens is a lens that diverges rays of light that are traveling parallel to its principal axis, so diverged light is light that had it's direction altered
Which lens only produces a virtual image because the light rays never converge?
diverging
A diverging lens only produces a virtual image because the light rays never:?
converge
Is a lens that is thicker at the edges than in the middle a concave lens?
Yes, this is a concave lens. It is also called a diverging lens because it causes light rays to spread out.
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)
Which lens has the least effect on light rays?
Lens exists in two forms, diverging, or converging. They affect light rays equally, but in contrasting manners.

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.
A diverging lens only produces a virtual image because the light rays never do what?
Converges (APEX)

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.
An object is located 51mm from a diverging lens the object has a height of 13mm and the image height is 3.5mm?
An object is located 51mm from a diverging lens the object has a height of 13mm and the image height is 3.5mm?Diverging lens do not form real images.When parallel rays of light passes thru a diverging lens, the rays diverge (spread apart) on the other side of the lens. It forms a virtual image. The object will look smaller.The image is on the same side of the lens as the object, so f is negative.Do = 51mm Ho = 13mmDi = ______ Hi = 3.5mmDi = -13.7mm1/Di + 1/Do = 1/f1/-13.5 + 1/51 = 1/ff = -18.36 mm
What is an optical device which bends light by concentrating or diverging the beam?
LENS
The differences in converging lens and a diverging lens?
A diverging light ray spreads out (diverges) in different directions, while a convergent light ray comes together (converges) at a single point known as the focus.
