### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Role of the Lens in a Camera**: - A photographic camera uses a convex lens to focus light and create an image on a film or sensor. The lens bends light rays to converge them at a point where the image is formed. 2. **Focal Length of the Lens**: - The focal length of a lens is the distance from the lens to the point where parallel rays of light converge. A lens with a larger focal length will have a longer distance from the lens to the image point. ...
