A horizontal dashed line representing the principal axis passes through the center of a thin vertical double-concave lens. Two focal points, labeled F on the left and F on the right, are marked on the principal axis at equal distances from the lens center. Three parallel horizontal light rays, drawn as solid arrows pointing to the right, approach the left surface of the lens parallel to the principal axis. The emerging rays beyond the lens are not shown. No other labels, lines, text, or axes appear.
Parallel light rays incident on a thin diverging lens.
A beam of parallel light rays traveling parallel to the principal axis is incident from the left onto a thin double-concave (diverging) glass lens in air. Which of the following claims correctly describes the behavior of the emerging light rays and provides the correct physical justification?
