The lens described in the question is likely a diverging lens (also known as a concave lens), which causes light rays to spread out. Given this description, the best application from the options provided would be:
A flashlight that will allow light exiting the flashlight to reach a bigger area.
This is because a diverging lens can spread light rays from a point source (like a flashlight) to illuminate a larger area.
