Why is concave lens called a negative lens?
Concave lens is called a negative lens because it has a negative focal length.
A concave mirror and a convex lens are held in waterwhat changes if any do you expect in their focal length?
Excellent question. The answer is actually yes! According to the lens makers formula, it will change based on the refractive index of the material of the concave mirror wrt the medium. Google Lens makers formula for better understanding! NO! the focal length of the mirror will not change if it would be a lens then the focal length would change. The lens maker's formula is for Lenses only!
A concave lens bends light towards its what?
Focal point.
Difference between focal point and focal length?
The focal point is the point where light converges after it passes through a concave lens. The focal length is the distance of the focal point to the lens. Same for a convex lens, except that the focal point is the imaginary point from where light deflected from lens seems to have emerged.
What creates an image that is reflected through a focal point?
a convex lens
Why is concave lens called a negative lens?
Concave lens is called a negative lens because it has a negative focal length.
A concave lens is kept in contact with convex lens of focal length 20cm the combination works as a converging lens of focal length 100cmcalculate the power of concave lens?
i think it is -0.06m i.e. 6cm

What is the medical application of the focal length of concave lens?
medical application of lens
A concave lens bends light towards its what?
Focal point.
What is the positive lens is the same as?
The focal point F and focal length f of a positive (convex) lens, a negative (concave) lens, a concave mirror, and a convex mirror. The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.
What happens to the focal length of convex lens when convex lens is cutted vertically along the optic center?
its focal lenght becomes 2f
Which lens and which mirror forms a visible focal point?
A concave lens and a convex lens are what you're looking for. / | ∙ \
Why doesn't a concave lens have a focal point?
because it is not refracted or reflected
Difference between focal point and focal length?
The focal point is the point where light converges after it passes through a concave lens. The focal length is the distance of the focal point to the lens. Same for a convex lens, except that the focal point is the imaginary point from where light deflected from lens seems to have emerged.
What creates an image that is reflected through a focal point?
a convex lens
Length of a lens is the distance from the center of the lens to its principal focus?
It is called the focal length. It is equal to 1/2 times r, and is positive on concave mirrors and negative on convex mirrors.
