Converging & Diverging Lenses

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}

Focal length (f)+0.20 m

Image distance (v)+0.60 m

Magnification×2.00

NatureReal, inverted

Focal length (magnitude)0.2 m

Object distance (u)0.3 m

Use the CONVERGING lens with the object beyond its focal length to form a REAL image
Switch to the DIVERGING lens and confirm the image is always virtual
Put the object INSIDE the focal length of the converging lens — a magnifying glass
Form a real image that is SMALLER than the object (object beyond 2f)
Confirm a diverging lens image is always DIMINISHED, however close the object gets
