A prism is a transparent optical element with flat polished surfaces that refracts light, separating it into its component colors. A convex lens, on the other hand, is a curved transparent piece of glass or other material that converges light rays to a focal point. Essentially, a prism disperses light while a convex lens focuses light.
A thick convex lens has a larger thickness and can bend light rays more than a thin convex lens. This results in a shorter focal length and stronger focusing ability for a thick convex lens compared to a thin convex lens.
A prism is a transparent object with flat surfaces that refracts light by bending it according to the material's refractive index, separating it into its component colors through dispersion. A convex lens, on the other hand, is a transparent object that refracts light to converge or focus the incoming rays to form an image. They differ in their shapes, functions, and the way they manipulate light.
A prism acts like a piece of glass that has two flat, non-parallel surfaces. Each surface of a prism behaves like a lens - one surface is concave and the other is convex. The combined effect of these surfaces is to bend light as it passes through the prism.
The difference is that when virtual image is formed by the concave mirror...it is larger than its original size..but when it is formed by the convex mirror..it is smaller than the original size....
The difference between concave and convex is that convex lenses are the type of lens that make images bigger, while concave make images smaller. Still confused, maybe this will help. When you think of concave think of a cave, how you can see a small image at the end of the cave, while convex is the opposite.
A convex lens bends inward. Hope this helps:)
A concave lens is a lens in which the ends are thicker than the middle, rather shaped like this ---> )( A convex lens is a lens in which the ends are thinner than the middle, shaped like the following ---> ()

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.

projector have concave or convex
The lenses have different responsibilities. A optic lens is often concave which means it fold inward. An anatomy lens is mostly convex which means it folds outwards. Both lens' help you see.

they are both lenses and form images
The image of the tree formed by the convex lens is virtual, upright, and magnified.
