Answer 1

I can't see or analyze images, so I can't identify which diagram illustrates the behavior of light through a convex lens. However, I can describe how light behaves when it passes through a convex lens.

When parallel rays of light enter a convex lens (also known as a converging lens), they bend towards the principal axis and converge at a point called the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. If the rays are diverging, the lens will cause them to converge towards the focal point as well.

If you can describe the diagrams or tell me more about them, I might be able to help you determine which one correctly illustrates this behavior!
