Question

What happens to incoming light rays that are parallel to the principal axis of a convex lens? A. They converge at the focal point. B. They diverge away from the principal axis. C. They converge beyond the focal point. DO. They diverge from the focal point.

Answer 1

D. They diverge from the focal point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Incoming light rays diverge from the focal point is they are parallel to the principal axis of a convex lens.

Answer 2

They diverge from the focal point.

Step-by-step explanation:

A convex lens is also called as converging lens. If the rays of light are parallel to the principal axis of a convex lens, it passes through the focal point of the lens.

For a converging lens, the ray of light diverge from the focal point of the lens. The image formed by a convex lens is real and inverted. When the object is placed between the focus and the optical center, the image is virtual and erect.

So, the correct option is (d) "They diverge from the focal point".
