What is converging length?
Converging length is the point when two lines or rays of light converge.
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.
Why is convex lens called converging lens?
All of the light entering the lens converges on the other side to a single point, the lens' focal point.
Why concave lens has virtual focus?
Concave lenses would have only diverging action. So parallel beam of light after passing through a concave lens have to go diverged. Only converging waves could produce a real image on a screen. But diverging rays cannot meet at a point and so they appear to come from a point and hence that point is taken to be the virtual image
Causes light rays passing through it to meet at a focal point?
A lens.
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 do converging lenses do to light rays?
They make the light rays converge to a point. Parallel rays converge at the focal point of the lens
What do magnifying glasses do to light?
It concentrates the rays to one point because it is a converging lens.
What lenss is a 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.
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.
Why is convex lens also called converging lens?
because light rays meet at a single point and do not spread out.
Why is convex lens called converging lens?
All of the light entering the lens converges on the other side to a single point, the lens' focal point.
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
Apart from opaque material what other materials form light shadows?
A converging (convex) lens will produce a shadow with the focal point in the center.
Why concave lens has virtual focus?
Concave lenses would have only diverging action. So parallel beam of light after passing through a concave lens have to go diverged. Only converging waves could produce a real image on a screen.
