Answer 2

convex lens

Step-by-step explanation:

Converging lens is also called a convex lens because of how light converges after being refracted from the lens.

When rays of light fall parallel to the lens (convex/converging lens), the rays refract and after being refracted they will converge at a focal point at a certain distance away from the lens.
