Converge means coming together or meeting at a common point, while diverge means branching off or moving apart in different directions. In mathematical terms, if a sequence or series of values approaches a specific number as they progress, they are said to converge. On the other hand, if the values in a sequence or series move further apart or do not approach a specific number, they are said to diverge.
The role of a lens is to converge and or diverge light depending on the shape of the lens.
Refracting glass is glass that has been shaped or curved to bend light as it passes through, causing it to converge or diverge. This is used in lenses, prisms, and other optical instruments to manipulate and focus light for various applications such as in microscopes, cameras, and eyeglasses.
No, Malta does not have any active volcanoes. The country is not located near any tectonic plate boundaries where volcanic activity is common.
When oceanic plates diverge an underwater earthquake is the result. Oceanic earthquakes often result in disastrous Tsunamis.
The focal length of a rectangular glass slab is not applicable as it does not have the ability to converge or diverge light to form an image. The primary function of a glass slab is to refract light without focusing it at a specific point.
