When comparing a convex and a concave lens, which statement is true about their respective effects on light?
Both converge light rays
Both diverge light rays
Convex lens converges while concave lens diverges
Convex lens diverges while concave lens converges
Answer and Solution
Answer
C. Convex lens converges while concave lens diverges
Solution:
A convex lens converges light rays to a focal point, while a concave lens diverges them. Thus, the correct answer is that the convex lens converges while the concave lens diverges.
