A diverging lens only produces a virtual image because the light rays never do what?
Converges (APEX)
What Uses two or more glass lenses to magnify either living cells or prepared slides?
compound light microscopeCompound Light Microscope
A magnifying glass is an example of?
converging lens.
What lenses are used in an X-ray machine?
Well, none. It is possible to focus X-rays with elaborate structure using grazing incidence, by Xray machines don't use them or any other focusing devices.
Why tube light not shadow?
The reson behibd this is that when we stand in front of tube light because the length of tube light is much more than your width The light from the tube light are not paralel to each other. So they have a wide range. When you stand in front of a tube light we don not allow the rays to travel through us. But as I already mentioned that the rays are not parralel. As they are not parallel some of these ray cover the shadow which would have formed otherwise. But still there is a very dull shadow but we are not able to see it. But as you go away from the tube the shadowy portion starts to become darker and darker. Because the rays which would cover the shadow becomes less.
What are diverging and converging lenses?
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.
What is converging length?
Converging length is the point when two lines or rays of light converge.
Why are convex lenses sometimes called converging lenses?
when the rays pass through the convex lens they tend to converge to the central horizontal axis as a result of which they seem to be meeting at common point so these are also called as converging lens.
What lenses refract light rays in toward a central point?
Convex lenses refract light rays in towards a central point. =()>
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.
What do lenses do to light rays?
They make the light rays converge to a point. Parallel rays converge at the focal point of the lens
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.
What do magnifying glasses do to light?
It concentrates the rays to one point because it is a converging 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.

Are concave lenses converging or diverging?
Diverging
How are convex and concave lenses different from each other?
Convex lenses are thicker in the middle than at the edges. They cause light rays to converge. Concave lenses are thicker at the edges than they are in the middle. They cause light rays to spread out, or diverge.
