Hey, I know that a converging lens produces no image (or is it a blurred image?) at its focal point. What happens with a diverging lens at its focal point?
Thanks.

Assuming that you are talking 'bout the object that is on the side of the light coming from, it should produce a virtual image since it's a diverging lens.
You are right, it produces no image at focal point for converging lens

An object at the focal point of a divering lens will form its image half way between the lens and the focal point.
