Ch.33 Reflection

Images formed in mirrors

Refraction: v = c/n; n 1 sin  1 = n 2 sin  2 Q.13

Refraction

Total internal reflection

Ch.34 Lenses & optical instruments

Object far from converging lens forms real image near focal point. Object close to converging lens forms virtual image.

Combinations of lenses (1) Find location of Image 1 → (2) Let this be Object 2 → Find Image 2

Simple camera and human eye

Corrective lenses

Magnifying glass

Telescope

Ch.35 Interference

Huyghen’s principle Every point on a wave front can be considered as a source of tiny wavelets that spread our in the forward direction at the speed of the wave itself.

Huyghens explains refraction

Interference – Young’s double-slit experiment □ First, PREDICT PATTERNS if light is PARTICLES or WAVES

Interference – theoretical explanation

Interference bright spots

Ch.36 Diffraction & Polarization

Diffraction through a single slit Diffraction DARK spots at
