-Did you know the stronger your magnifying glass is, the closer your focal point is? -Did you know that “A magnifying glass is simply a convex lens meant to be held up to an object to see it magnified. It is a very simple form of microscope, and its invention allowed many later breakthroughs in optics to occur.” –www.wisegeek.com
Refraction is the bending of light when it passes through another medium of different density and changes its speed!
Magnifying Glass uses the principles of REFRACTION to make objects seem larger! The way to do this is with convex lens which is a great lens for making the objects look larger!
