Vedclass · Answer

(B) lens is a transparent optical medium bounded by two surfaces,at least one of which is spherical. When light rays pass through a lens,they change their direction due to the change in the optical medium (from air to glass or vice versa). This bending of light as it passes from one transparent medium to another is known as refraction. Therefore,the formation of images by lenses is based on the principle of refraction.

The formation of an image by a lens is due to which optical phenomenon?
