Why paper catches fire when a convex lens I used to focus sunlight?

Answer»

x lens can be used to focus the parallel RAYS of sunlight passing through it, into a singular point. If this focal point is aimed accurately onto a PIECE of paper, then you will see a SMALL IMAGEOF the SUN at the focal point, and this is where the paper will begin to burn.
