Solution

The phenomenon described, where a beam of white light passing through a convex lens parallel to the principal axis results in different colors of light converging at different points on the principal axis after refraction, is called Chromatic Aberration.

Similar Questions

The spherical aberration of a converging lens can be corrected by reducing the thickness of the lens periphery.  The spherical aberration of the lens is caused because light rays emerging from the lens:A.are insufficiently refracted at the lens periphery.B.converge at the lens focal point uniformly.C.are excessively refracted at the lens periphery.D.are scattered due to chromatic dispersion.
