It depends on what the lens is being used for.
Power is inversely related to the focal length. So convex lens of focal length 20 cm has less power compared to that having focal length 10 cm
The limit of the object distance to produce a real image is twice the focal length of the lens or mirror. This occurs when the object distance is equal to the focal length, resulting in the image distance being at infinity. At distances greater than twice the focal length, the real image becomes smaller and inverted.
If an object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length of a convex lens, a real and inverted image will be produced. The image will also be smaller than the object.
The focal length of a convex lens determines the magnification of the image produced by the magnifying glass. A shorter focal length will result in a larger magnification, making the image appear bigger. Conversely, a longer focal length will result in a smaller magnification, making the image appear smaller.
The curvature of the eye's lens is related to its focal length: a more curved lens will have a shorter focal length, which allows the eye to focus on near objects. Conversely, a less curved lens will have a longer focal length, allowing the eye to focus on distant objects.
The magnification of the telescope image is(focal length of the objective) divided by (focal length of the eyepiece).The focal length of the objective is fixed.Decreasing the focal length of the eyepiece increases the magnification of the image.(But it also makes the image dimmer.)

In a camera, the focal length of the lens determines the angle of view and the magnification of the image projected onto the sensor or CCD (Charge-Coupled Device). A larger focal length results in a narrower field of view and greater magnification, while a shorter focal length offers a wider field of view. The size of the CCD also influences the effective focal length; for instance, a smaller sensor can make a lens appear to have a longer focal length due to the crop factor. Thus, both the lens's focal length and the CCD size work together to shape the final image capture.

Technically the shorter the focal length, the thicker the mirror. But some short focal length telescopes have relatively thin mirrors all the same.

No, the focal length of a lens depends on its shape and material properties rather than its curvature. A more curved lens may or may not have a smaller focal length depending on the specific design and purpose of the lens.
The focal length will be greater in a thin convex lens compared to a thick convex lens. Thinner lenses have less curvature, causing light rays to converge more gradually and thus increasing the focal length.
A lens of short focal length has a greater power (than a lens of large focal length)
The magnification of a telescope is the ratio of the effective focal length of the objective to the focal length of the eyepiece. For example, a small telescope's objective may have a focal length of 800mm. When an eyepiece with a focal length of 25mm is used, the magnification is 800/25 = 32. The term "effective focal length" refers to the focal length of the objective as affected by any "focal extender". Many telescopes are designed to have a short total size, but high power, by "folding" the optical path. A mirror-type objective with a focal length of perhaps 800mm is coupled with a smaller curved mirror that intercepts the last 200mm and extends it to 800mm, a 4x extension, so that the effective focal length of that objective is 3200mm. Use that with a 25mm eyepiece and the magnification is 3200/25 = 128. By the way, if a telescope is smaller than you are, it is seldom much use to view using a magnification greater than 50 to 100. Most objects are best viewed at relatively low powers such as 30 or so.
