To solve the question, we will draw ray diagrams for both a convex lens and a concave lens to show where a beam of light converges at point P. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Draw the Principal Axis** - Begin by drawing a horizontal line across your paper. This line represents the principal axis of the lens. **Step 2: Draw the Convex Lens** ...
