only forms virtual images
thicker in the middle

In a ray diagram in which the converging lens acts as a magnifying class, where is the image located?
Behind the lens (on the other side of the lens the object is not on)
In front of the lens (same side of the lens as the object) but between the object and the center of the lens
In front of the lens (same side of the lens as the object) but the object is between the image and the center of the lens
no image can be created (image location is infinity)
Which is the correct description of the first principal ray in a ray diagram with a converging lens?
light ray moves from object, parallel to the principal axis, and bends toward the principal axis after exiting the lens
light ray moves from object, parallel to the principal axis, and bends away from the principal axis after exiting the lens
light ray moves from object diagonally through the center of the lens in a straight line
light ray moves from object diagonally to the center of the lens, and bends to be parallel with the principal axis
True or False: Ray diagrams for both converging and diverging lenses have a principal ray that is a straight diagonal line from the object through the center of the lens
True
False
