In reflection: Angle of incidence =
What is the angle of reflection
A mirror shaped like part of a sphere in which the inner surface is reflective
What is a concave mirror
Line through the centre of the centre of curvature to the midpoint of the mirror
What is the principal axis
A mirror shaped like part of a sphere in which the outer surface is reflective
What is a covex mirror
Point where the principal axis meets the mirror
What is the vertex
The ray that bounces off a reflective surface
What is a reflected ray
The angle between the incident ray and the normal
What is the angle of incidence
The perpendicular line to the mirror surface
What is the normal
Define apparent depth
The depth that an object appears to be due to the refraction of light in a transparent medium
Define mirage
What is a virtual image that forms as a result of refraction and total internal reflection in Earth’s atmosphere
The substance or material that light is travelling through (e. g The substance or material that light is travelling through (e.g. water, air, glass, oil)
What is a medium
Define Refraction
What is the change in direction of light as it moves from one medium to another “bending of light”
Why does refraction happens?
What is speed of light changes
2 conditions for refraction to occur
1- light must change media (change speed when crossing the boundary) What is 1- light must change media (change speed when crossing the boundary) 2- light must approach the boundary at an angle
The ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum (c) to the speed of light in a given material (v).
What is the index of refraction
Lens that is thickest in the middle (light rays bend through a single point)
What is a converging lens
Lens that is thinnest in the middle (light rays spread apart)
What is a diverging lens
Point at the exact centre of a the lens
What is an optical centre
The point at the principal axis of a lens where light rays parallel to the principal axis converge after refraction
What is the principal focus
Which lens ALWAYS produces a smaller, upright, virtual image?
What is a diverging lens
Angle of incidence that results in angle of refraction of 90˚
What is a critical angle
The situation when the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle
What is total internal reflection
Technology that uses light to transmit information along a glass cable
What is Fibre optics
Optical phenomenon that is produced by water droplets in Earth’s atmosphere
What is a rainbow
3 changes in direction of light when it interacts with a raindrop to form a rainbow
What is 1- refraction (air to water), 2- partial internal reflection, 3- refraction (water to air)
