UCSD Physics 10 Winter Hall Mirror It is useful to think in terms of images and objectsIt is useful to think in terms of images and objects “image” of you The real “object” (you) mirror only needs to be half as high as you are tall. Your image will be twice as far from you as the mirror.

UCSD Physics 10 Winter Refraction Light also goes through some thingsLight also goes through some things –glass, water, eyeball, air Presence of material slows light’s progressPresence of material slows light’s progress –interactions with electrical properties of atoms Light has slowing and bending factor called the index of refraction. The denser it is the higher the index and the more it slows and bends lightLight has slowing and bending factor called the index of refraction. The denser it is the higher the index and the more it slows and bends light –glass has n = 1.52, meaning that light travels about 1.5 times slower in glass than in vacuum –water has n = 1.33 –air has n = –vacuum is n = (speed of light at full capacity)
