A convex lens is known as a converging lens. Is there any condition when it does not behave as converging lens?

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Nature of Convex Lens:** A convex lens is typically known as a converging lens because it bends light rays that pass through it towards a common focal point. This behavior is due to the lens being made of a denser medium (like glass) surrounded by a rarer medium (like air). 2. **Identifying the Condition:** The question asks if there is a condition under which a convex lens does not behave as a converging lens. Yes, such a condition exists. ...
