← HistoryWhich outcome occurs when medieval Alhazen lenses have inclusions?
A)Increased chromatic aberration observed✓
B)Reduced internal light scattering
C)Improved image resolution forms
D)Enhanced ultraviolet radiation blocking
💡 Explanation
Increased chromatic aberration occurs due to dispersion; the inclusions cause non-uniform refraction within the lens via Rayleigh scattering. This is because the lens material is inhomogeneous, therefore different wavelengths focus at varying points, rather than converging accurately.
