Question

Refer to the diagram to the left and use the drop-down menus to identify the parts of a magnifying glass.

Label A:



Label B:



Label C:

Answer 1

I don’t have the diagram, so I can’t be certain which label points to which part. Could you upload the image or describe what A, B and C are pointing at (for example: “A points to the round glass, B to a small arrow left of the lens, C to a larger arrow on the same side,” or “A is on the principal axis, B at a point where rays meet,” etc.)?

If this is the standard magnifying-glass ray diagram where the object is between the lens and its focal point (so the lens produces a virtual, upright, enlarged image on the same side as the object), the typical labels are:
- A = Object (small upright arrow)
- B = Convex lens (the glass of the magnifying glass)
- C = Virtual, enlarged image (upright, larger arrow on same side as object)

If you describe the positions of A/B/C I’ll give the exact labels.
