Answer

Concave lens

Concave lenses represent the type of lenses which are slender at the centre than at the borders. The shape of a concave lense is round inward that bends the beams outward, causing divergence of the rays of light falling on it, so it is known as a diverging lens. This also makes the object look smaller and farther than they really are and the image formed is virtual, diminished and upright.

Example: Concave lenses are used in the side mirrors of cars and motorbikes. They can also be used in movie projectors to spread the image.

Answer:

A concave lens is a lens that possesses at least one surface that curves inwards. It is a diverging lens, meaning that it spreads out light rays that have been refracted through it. A concave lens is thinner at its centre than at its edges, and is used to correct short-sightedness (myopia).
