Diverging lenses spread light rays apart, causing the image to appear smaller and virtual. This makes it unsuitable for magnifying purposes as it does not converge light rays to create a larger, real image. Magnifying glasses use converging lenses to magnify objects by bending light rays towards each other to create a larger, real image.
A converging lens causes parallel light rays to converge to a focal point, while a diverging lens causes parallel light rays to diverge away from a focal point. Converging lenses are thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges, while diverging lenses are thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges.
Examples of converging lenses include the lens in a magnifying glass, a camera lens, and corrective lenses for nearsightedness. These lenses are thicker in the middle and cause incoming light rays to converge to a focal point.
A magnifying glass can burn paper by concentrating sunlight onto a small area, causing it to reach high temperatures. The lens of the magnifying glass acts as a converging lens, focusing the sunlight into a small, intense spot that can generate enough heat to ignite the paper.
A converging lens produces a virtual image that is upright and enlarged, while a diverging lens produces a virtual image that is upright and reduced in size. Additionally, the converging lens forms the virtual image on the same side as the object, while the diverging lens forms it on the opposite side.
converging lens.
The answer is both convex and converging
a lens..a converging lens to be exact

A converging lens is thin at the ends and thick in the middle. It is called converging because the rays of light passing through it, if parallel, converge at a point the other side. A magnifying glass uses a converging lens.
