Question: Each lens is converging. The second lens has a larger focal length than the first ( f 2 > f 1 ) . 1 )

Each lens is converging. The second lens has a larger focal length than the first (f2> f1).
1)
What does the beam look like when it emerges from the second lens?
The beam is converging
The beam is diverging
The beam is parallel to the axis with a width < w1
The beam is parallel to the axis with a width = w1
The beam is parallel to the axis with a width > w1

Your submissions:
Both laser beams will go through F1, thus the distance will be greater than w1. After pass F2, both beams will be parallel to the axis, thus parallel.
Computed value:
Both laser beams will go through F1, thus the distance will be greater than w1. After pass F2, both beams will be parallel to the axis, thus parallel.
