SPM Physics: AHA! Convex Lens = Converging Lens

 


Why does a convex lens focus light rays? The answer lies in its shape and optical behavior:

  • Thicker at the centre, thinner at the edges.

  • Parallel rays entering the lens are refracted towards the principal axis.

  • The rays meet at a real focal point (F).

Exam tip: don’t just look at the lens shape. Follow the rays — where do they go? The scoring clue is: parallel rays converge at the focal point after refraction.

AHA! Convex lens focuses light. Not by sight, but by INSIGHT!
