Your are mixing properties. Converging lens is always thicker in the centre and thinner at the edges. The other cathegory is the geometry of shape of the surfaces of the lens. Convex means that the shape is similar to the outer surbace of a sphere, concave means that the shape is similar to the iner surface of a sphere (or: convex = lower side of a spoon as we use it for sampling a soup; concave: upper (inner) shape of the spoon). A double convex lens is always a converging lens. A plano-concave lens is always a diverging (not converging) lens. A convexo-concave lens is the most usual shape of a lense used in spectacles. It can be either converging or diverging, depending on the radii of the surfaces.

What is a name of a converging lens?
Converging lens is a convex lens.
What is converging length?
Converging length is the point when two lines or rays of light converge.
Is a double convex lens converging lens?
Yes converging lens. The power of the lens is given by reciprocal of its focal length. Moreover the power for converging action is +ve. So as we place two converging lenses ie convex lenses, then we have to add the powers. Once again the power becomes +ve. So converging action is definite.

How can you use the word converging in a sentence?
The word 'converging' is the present participle, present tense of the verb to converge. The present participle of the verb also functions as an adjective and a gerund (verbal noun).Example sentences:My dwindling bank account and my pile of bills are converging in a disaster. (verb)Their converging ideas began to form a concrete plan. (adjective)The converging of two fronts created a super-storm. (gerund)The verb 'converging' means coming together. Here are some sentences.The lines are converging into one point.The converging rivers widened as they came together.The roads are converging into a highway.
What is converging lens?
A converging lens is thin at the ends and thick in the middle. It is called converging because the rays of light passing through it, if parallel, converge at a point the other side. A magnifying glass uses a converging lens.
