What is the difference between a convex lens and a concave lens
Concave-convex lens is an important and error-prone knowledge point in junior high school physical optical imaging. Because there are many imaging laws involved in the two, students often confuse them. In this article, we will sort out the structure and imaging of concave and convex lenses. And the difference in use, etc., to help students learn better. 【 Definition of convex lens 】 Convex lenses are made according to the principle of refraction of light. A convex lens is a lens that is thicker in the center and thinner at the edges. Convex lenses are divided into biconvex, plano-convex and concave-convex (or positive meniscus) forms. Convex lenses have the function of converging light, so they are also called converging lenses. Thicker convex lenses have functions such as telescopic and converging, which are related to the thickness of the lens. . 【 Definition of Concave Lens 】 A concave lens is also called a negative spherical lens. The middle of the lens is thin and the edge is t
