Diverging Lens Ray Diagram. Virtual images are produced when outgoing rays from a single point of the object diverge never cross. Ray diagrams are constructed by taking the path of two distinct rays from a single point on the object.
Use the check boxes to choose which rays to show. The top diagram shows the formation of the virtual object where converging rays are prevented from meeting by the diverging lens. Ray diagrams are constructed by taking the path of two distinct rays from a single point on the object.
You need any two to fix the position of the image.
11 draw a ray diagram for a diverging lens that has a focal length of 10 8 cm when an object is placed 32 4 cm from the lens s surface. Any incident ray of light that passes through the focus of the lens before getting refracted will emerge parallel to the principal axis on refraction. Ray diagrams are constructed by taking the path of two distinct rays from a single point on the object. In this lab you will construct the two ray diagrams for diverging lenses.
