  1. Supersonic Flow in Diverging Nozzle - Physics Forums

    Nov 13, 2011 · Clearly, at low speeds the velocity of a fluid increases when the area through which it is traveling decreases. I am curious as to why a fluid traveling faster than the speed of sound increases …

  2. Why Does Flow Become Supersonic in the Diverging Section of a Nozzle?

    Sep 6, 2007 · i just started reading about nozzles and turbines in my semester course. i went through converging diverging nozzles. for achieving a supersonic flow, a converging diverging nozzle is used. …

  3. Identifying Converging and Diverging Lenses: Explaining with Principal ...

    Feb 1, 2005 · To determine whether a lens is converging or diverging, analyze the behavior of the principal rays after they pass through the lens. A convex lens will cause rays to converge at a point …

  4. Does Light Focus When Passing Through Converging and Diverging …

    Jan 28, 2009 · Homework Statement A converging lens has a focal length f, and a diverging lens has a focal length –f, which has the same magnitude as the converging lens. They are separated by a …

  5. Mirrors & Lenses: Understanding Virtual and Real Images

    Mar 10, 2011 · Homework Statement True or False 1. A single diverging lens can only make a virtual image. 2. When parallel rays strike a concave spherical mirror with radius R they are focussed …

  6. Focal Length of Diverging Lens: Negative Value Confirmed?

    Jun 18, 2007 · Can someone confirm that the focal length of a diverging lens is always negative in value? Regards

  7. What is the difference between converging and diverging functions?

    Apr 20, 2008 · Can someone please explain the difference between a converging and a diverging function and how to recognize when each occur?? Thank you!

  8. What is the magnification problem with two lenses?

    Oct 25, 2006 · Here is the problem I am working on: Two lenses that are L = 38 cm apart are used to form an image, as shown in Figure 26-52. Lens 1 is diverging and has a focal length f1 = -7 cm; lens …
