What is a piece of clear material that is thinner in the middle and thicker around the edges?

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.

Is a contact lens a diverging or a converging lens?

They can be either. They will converge if thicker in the middle than edges, and diverge if thinner in the middle than edges.


What is a curved lens in which the center is thicker than the edges?

A convex lens is a curved lens in which the center is thicker than the edges. Convex lenses are thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, causing light rays passing through it to converge at a focal point.


What is a lens called if it is thicker in the middle than at the edges?

A lens that is thicker in the middle than at the edges is called a convex lens. It is a converging lens that causes light rays to converge at a focal point.

Concave lens. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges, causing light rays to diverge. Convex lenses are thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, causing light rays to converge.


What shape is concave lens?

A spoon that you have put some food into is a concave shape. It is a cavity. A concave lens is such that it is thicker at the edges than in the middle. Convex is the bottom of the spoon. A convex lens is thicker in the centre than around the edges.
