They're spread around the world... usually along the edges of tectonic plates.
Light refracts when it passes across the boundary of two media having different optical densities (refractive indexes). If the light stated in the question had done this, then it is refracted.
Knives and scissors have edges to cut things, but nails do not have sharp edges, they have points to penetrate hard surfaces.

The correct spelling is Dodecahedron and it has 30 edges.* * * * *The correct spelling for a shape with 12 faces is, indeed, dodecahedron. But the question is about a shape with 10 faces, for which the spelling IS correct.Unfortunately, that is as far as we can go. There are many possible configurations for a decahedron and they have different numbers of edges:For example:A nonagon based pyramid: 18 edgesAn octagonal prism : 24 edgesA pentagonal dipyramid: 15 edges.
A convex lens.
thicker, thinner
concave lens
concave lens
convex
Concave lens
They can be either. They will converge if thicker in the middle than edges, and diverge if thinner in the middle than edges.
Concave is thinner in the center than the edges and convex lens is thicker in the center than on the edges :)
A lens that is thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges is called a concave lens.
A convex lens typically fits this description. Convex lenses are thinner in the middle and thicker around the edges, causing light rays passing through them to converge.
because the crust is thinner and the techtonic plates meet.
Glasses for nearsighted people are convex. That is, the center of the lens is thinner than the outer edges.
