← HistoryWhich visual distortion arises when light encounters ancient magnifying lens imperfections?
A)Increased chromatic aberration✓
B)Reduced spherical distortion
C)Enhanced depth of field
D)Improved image resolution
💡 Explanation
Increased chromatic aberration occurs because inhomogeneities cause differential refraction via dispersion, which separates white light into its constituent colors; therefore, colored fringes appear around images, rather than perfectly focused images, because flaws diffuse light unevenly.
