Converging Diverging
Lens Lens
Find the focal length of a converging lens by
holding it up to a window.
(See how far away from the lens you need to hold
a piece of paper to focus the image on the paper.)
Converging Lens:
Ray #1:
Parallel to the axis
Refracts through F
Ray #2:
Through F
Refracts parallel to axis
Ray #3:
Through Center of
