Question

..................... lens is called converging lens while .................... lens is called diverging lens

Answer 1

$\huge\underline\mathtt\blue{Lens:}$

A lens is a transparent retracting medium bounded by two surfaces - at least one of these must be spherical.

Usually Lenses are of two types--

• Convex or converging lens.
• Concave or diverging lens

Convex or converging lens:

A lens which bulges out in the middle ( i.e. thicker in the middle and thinner at its edges) ais called a convex or converging lens.

Concave or diverging lens:

A lens which is bent inwards in the middle (i.e.,thicker at the edges and thinner in the middle) is called a concave or diverging lens.

$\huge\underline\mathtt\red{Answer:}$

Convex lens is called converging lens, while concave lens is called diverging lens.

Convex lens is called converging lens, while concave lens is called diverging lens.

$\huge\red{\mathbb{Lens}}$

It is a a piece of glass or other transparent material with curved sides for concentrating or dispersing light rays, used singly (as in a magnifying glass) or with other lenses (as in a telescope). ...
