How does increasing the curvature of a lens affect its focal length?
Increases the focal length
Decreases the focal length
No effect on the focal length
Makes the lens opaque
Answer and Solution
Answer
B. Decreases the focal length
Solution:
Increasing the curvature of a lens decreases its focal length, making it more effective at converging or diverging light. Thus, the correct answer is that it decreases the focal length.
