What is a lens has a center that is thicker than its edges?
A convex lens.
Why do goggle lens does not have any power even when they are curved?
Goggle lenses don't have magnifying power because the front and back of the lens is curved the same. Lenses only have refracting (magnifying or size-reducing) power if the front of the lens is curved differently than the back of the lens. If the curvatures produce a lens that is thicker at the center than at the edges, then it will magnify. A lens that is thinner at the center than at the edges will be size-reducing.
What is a lens that is thinner in the center and thicker at the edges converging lens?
convex

Is a convex lens thicker in the center than at the edges?
Yes it is.
What shape does concave and convex lens make?
Concave is thinner in the center than the edges and convex lens is thicker in the center than on the edges :)
Explain the shape of a concave lens and a convex lens?
A convex lens is thicker in the center than at the edges. A convex lens is like a concave mirror.A concave lens is thinner in the center than at the edges.
What is the main difference between how convex and concave lenses affect light?
Concave lenses are thicker at the edges then at the middle. A Convex lens is a lens that is thicker in the center than at its edges.
What's the name of a curved lens that is thicker in the middle?
it is a convex lens .
What lens are thicker at edges than middle?
CONCAVE lens.
