Do lenses transmit and refract light?

Yes, lenses transmit light by allowing it to pass through, and they refract light by bending it as it travels through the lens. This bending of light is what allows lenses to focus and magnify images.


Magnifies by allowing light to pass through an object and then through two or more lenses?

a compound light microscope


What allows only light vibrating in a certain direction to pass through?

Polarized lenses


How many lenses does the light pass through between the light source and your eye?

how does light effect your eye? In a compound light microscope? The light passes through three lenses between the light source and your eye. The first lens is the condenser lens.. The second lens is the objective lens. The third and final lens is the Eyepiece, also known as, the ocular lens. This is the lens you look through. These are the lenses that light must pass through to get from the light source to your eye.


What happens to light rays when they pass through a concave lens?

When light rays pass through a concave lens, they diverge or spread out. This causes the light rays to appear to have come from a virtual focus point on the same side as the light source. Concave lenses are used to correct nearsightedness by diverging the incoming light rays before they reach the eye.

What type microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses to form an image?

What happens to light when it travells through air and meets a transparant surface?

transparent surfaces, allow light to pass through, translucent surfaces allow SOME light to pass through and opaque surfaces DO NOT allow any light to pass through


Which property of light wave makes the image seen through lenses?

The property of light waves that allows an image to be seen through lenses is the refraction of light. When light waves pass through a lens, they are bent or refracted, causing the rays to converge or diverge depending on the shape of the lens, resulting in the formation of an image.


Why do you think lenses cause greater refraction of light?

Lenses cause greater refraction of light because they are curved and change the direction of light as it passes through. The curved shape of the lens causes the light to focus or diverge, leading to a greater bending of light rays compared to when they pass through a flat surface.


How do lens interact with light?

Lenses interact with light by refracting it, which means bending the light rays as they pass through the lens. This bending of light helps converge or diverge the light rays to form an image, depending on the shape of the lens. Convex lenses converge light rays to a focal point, while concave lenses diverge light rays.


What type of microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and use two lenses to form an image?

A compound light microscope allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lenses (objective and eyepiece) to form an image. This type of microscope is commonly used in laboratories and educational settings for viewing cells, tissues, and other small specimens in detail.
