what does a convex lens do to incoming light rays?
make them converge to a focal point
spread them apart
absorb them completely
turn them into sound
In the field of Physics (a subfield of Natural Science), a convex lens is known for its ability to refract incoming light rays such that they converge (come together) at a specific point called the focal point. The option "Spread them apart" is characteristic of a concave lens, "Absorb them completely" is not a function of a convex lens (lenses primarily refract, not absorb light completely in this context), and "Turn them into sound" is scientifically incorrect as light and sound are different forms of energy and a lens doesn't convert light to sound.
