OpticsLaw of Reflection:The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.

OpticsRefractionLight “bends” or changes its angle as it moves from one medium to another.

OpticsBasic TerminologyFocal Point

The point where parallel beams of light converge after reflecting

Center of curvature

The center point of the circle made by a concave or convex mirror.

OpticsLensesConverging Lens

Parallel beams of light come together after refracting through the lensExample: Magnifying Glass

Optics

Concave mirrors—principle rays

Incident ray parallel to axis, reflected ray through the focal point

Optics


Incident ray through the focal point, reflected parallel to axis

Optics


Incident ray through the center point, reflected through the center point

OpticsConcave mirrors—examples

Image is smaller, inverted and real

Optics

Convex mirrors—principle rays

Incident ray parallel to the axis, reflected away from focal point (virtual)

(virtual ray)

Optics


Incident ray toward the focal point, reflected parallel to the axis

Optics


Incident ray toward the center point, reflected toward away from the center point
