Two parts for the diagram!! (Attached inside!!) part 1: The diagram illustrates a lens, with F a distance of one focal length f from the lens. In which direction is the ray of light refracted? Ray A, Ray B, Ray C, or Ray D ? Part 2: The diagram illustrates a lens, with F a distance of one focal length f from the lens. In what direction is the incoming ray of light refracted? Ray A, Ray B, Ray C , or Ray D ?

first part: after therefraction we have ray A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about part 2? :)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the incoming ray of the refracte ray A is the horizontal ray at the left side of the lens

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that means for part 2, the solution is also A? :/

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

refracted*

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ray A is the refracted ray

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so it is moving in the direction of ray C ? :/ for part 2?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I think that a drawing is missing, namely the drawing for part 2 is missing

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ray C can not be the refracted ray

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry! i forgot to attach it!! :) here it is :)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

here the refracted ray is ray D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oohh okay!! :) thank you!!!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
