Concave surfaces are inwardly curved, causing light to be focused towards a single point (e.g., a concave mirror), resulting in a real image. Convex surfaces are outwardly curved, causing light to be spread out or dispersed, resulting in a virtual image. In the dark, a concave surface may appear darker as it focuses light away, while a convex surface may appear lighter as it scatters light.
A convex lens is thicker at the center and thinner at the edges, causing light rays to converge to a focal point. This type of lens is often used in cameras and binoculars. On the other hand, a concave lens is thinner at the center and thicker at the edges, causing light rays to diverge. Concave lenses are commonly used in correcting nearsightedness.
Lenses: converging (convex) and diverging (concave) Mirrors: concave and convex
Concave mirrors converge light rays to a focal point, making them useful for reflecting light to create images. Convex mirrors diverge light rays, making them useful for applications like rear-view mirrors where a wide field of view is needed.
No, the meniscus is not always concave. It can be convex or flat depending on the liquid and the surface tension between the liquid and the container.
Any polygon that has an angle that is > 180º is a concave polygon. A convex polygon does not. e.g. All regular polygons are convex.
A non convex is a concave and a convex is differently shaped
A concave polygon has lines that curve inwards whereas a convex polygon has lines that curve outwards and they are found on and inside spheres

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.
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 ---> ()
The opposite of convex is concave. Concave shapes have an inward curve, while convex shapes have an outward curve.
It can be convex or concave.
