What is converging or convex lens?

A converging lens is thicker in the middle and converges light rays to a focal point, used in cameras and microscopes. A convex lens is also known as a converging lens.


What is a name of a converging lens?

One name for a converging lens is a convex lens. This type of lens is thicker at the center than at the edges, and it causes light rays to converge to a focal point. Convex lenses are commonly used in cameras, telescopes, and as eyeglasses for people with farsightedness.


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.


Is also called a converging lens?

convex lens yo, it is biconvex lens


What is another word for convex lens?

Converging or Converging Lens


Does a camera use a diverging lens?

All cameras have converging lenses instead of diverging because they need a real image and not a virtual one to capture a photo.

Can pinhole cameras use a con flex lens?

No, because pinhole cameras don't have any lens.


Does a movie projector use a concave lens?

No, a movie projector uses a convex lens.


Which lens is a converging lens a double-convex lens or a spherical-convex lens or a plano-concave lens or a convexo-concave lens?

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 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.
