Lab 9: Reflection and Refraction
– Law of Reflection– Law of Refraction (Snell’s Law)

• Light ray– Originates at a point source– Travels straight– Changes direction at interface
• Reflection & refraction in this lab
• Object– Point source of light rays
• Image– Apparent convergence point of light rays from object
