Ax Prisms and lenses both bend light in interesting, and sometimes, useful, ways. Match the prisms and lenses with their

Question

purpose, as well as how they can be used.
Separates white light into different colors
Thicker at the center, causes light to bend inward, or converge
Surface curved like the inner surface of a sphere, causes light to bend outward, or diverge
Used in tools like telescopes and microscopes
:: prism
:: convex lens
:: concave lens
:: concave and convex lenses

Answer 1

Here is the correct matching of prisms and lenses with their purposes and uses:

1. Separates white light into different colors:: prism

2. Thicker at the center, causes light to bend inward, or converge:: convex lens

3. Surface curved like the inner surface of a sphere, causes light to bend outward, or diverge:: concave lens

4. Used in tools like telescopes and microscopes:: concave and convex lenses

This matching highlights the distinct functions and applications of each optical element.
