A diverging lens is thinner in the center than at the edges, causing light passing through it to spread out. As light rays enter the lens, they are refracted away from the lens axis, causing them to diverge. This divergence creates a virtual image that appears smaller and upright when viewed through the lens.
Yes, a diverging lens does have a focal length. The focal length of a diverging lens is negative, as the light rays diverge after passing through the lens.
A convex lens acts as a diverging lens when the light passing through it diverges rather than converges. This typically occurs when the object is located very close to the lens or when the light rays are not parallel to begin with.
A diverging lens is a lens that diverges rays of light that are traveling parallel to its principal axis, so diverged light is light that had it's direction altered
A concave lens is otherwise known as a diverging lens.
A lens brings diverging light rays to parallel tracks by refracting the light rays as they pass through the lens. The shape of the lens causes the light rays to converge and then diverge again, ultimately causing them to travel in parallel paths.

A diverging lens is also known as a concave lens. This type of lens causes light rays to diverge or spread out as they pass through it. It is thinner at the center than at the edges.
The sign of the focal length for a diverging lens is negative. This indicates that the focal point is located behind the lens where the light rays appear to diverge.
Converging lens is thicker at the center than at the edges and refracts light rays towards a focal point, forming real or virtual images. Diverging lens is thinner at the center and causes light rays to spread out, resulting in virtual images. The focal point of a diverging lens is on the same side as the object, unlike converging lens.
A converging lens is thicker in the center than at the edges and focuses light rays to a single point known as the focal point. In contrast, a diverging lens is thinner in the center and causes light rays to spread out.
Concave lenses bend light rays outward (diverging) as they pass through, causing the rays to spread apart. This is due to the shape of the lens surface being thinner at the center than at the edges, which causes light rays to diverge.
A diverging lens can only produce a virtual image, because the light passing through a diverging lens never converges to a point. The virtual image produced by a diverging lens is always right-side-up and smaller than the original object. The image and the object viewed are always on the same side of the lens. Diverging lenses are used as viewfinders in cameras.
A concave lens is called a diverging lens because it causes light rays to spread out or diverge as they pass through it. This results in the rays appearing to come from a virtual focal point behind the lens, opposite to the direction of incident light.
