Chapter 14 Light & Reflection Physics
2
Light and Reflection ☺Electromagnetic Waves ☺Transverse Waves ☺Oscillating Electric and Magnetic Fields Perpendicular to Each Other
3
Light and Reflection ☺Sources of Light ☺Transparent ☺Materials that Transmit Light Waves without Distortion ☺Translucent ☺Materials that Transmit Light Waves with Some Distortion ☺Opaque ☺Materials that Do Not Transmit Light Waves ☺Instead, They Reflect Light Waves
4
Light and Reflection ☺Light ☺Range of Electromagnetic Frequencies ☺ 750nm – 380nm
5
Light and Reflection ☺Light ☺Travels in a Straight Line ☺Models Using Light “Rays” ☺Speed of Light ☺c ~ 3.00x10 8 m/s
6
Light and Reflection ☺Light ☺Wave Front ☺Point Source ☺Rays ☺Huygens’ Principle
7
Light and Reflection ☺Luminous ☺Emits Light Directly ☺Sun ☺Illuminated ☺Reflects Light ☺Moon
8
Light and Reflection ☺Luminous Flux (P) ☺Amount of Visible Light Emitted from a Source ☺Brightness ☺Units are Lumens ☺Illuminance (E) ☺The Rate of Illumination Provided by a Light Source ☺Lumens / m 2 ☺1 lumens/m 2 = 1 Lux
9
Light and Reflection ☺Luminous Intensity (cd) ☺Units are Candela (“Candle Power”) ☺Luminous Flux in an Area of 1m 2, 1m from a Source ☺Illuminance (E)
10
Light and Reflection ☺Increasing Illumination ☺Increase Luminous Flux ☺Use a Brighter Bulb ☺Decrease the Distance Between the Light Source and the Illuminated Surface
11
Light and Reflection ☺Inverse – Square Relationship ☺Luminous Flux in an Area of 1m 2, 1m from a Source ☺so… ☺At a Distance of 2m, the Area is 4m 2 ☺The Luminous Flux Stays the Same, so Illuminance Would be ¼ of the Original
12
Light and Reflection ☺Homework: ☺Page 550 ☺Problems: ☺10 ☺11 ☺12 (3.02 m) ☺13 (9.1mm)
13
Light and Reflection Law of Reflection “Normal to the Surface” (“Normal”) A Line Perpendicular to a Reflective Surface Incident Ray Light Ray Striking a Reflective Surface from a Light Source Reflected Ray Light Ray Reflecting from an Incident Ray off a Reflective Surface
14
Light and Reflection Law of Reflection Incident Angle (Angle of Incidence) The Angle Between the Incident Ray and Normal Reflective Angle (Angle of Reflection) The Angle Between the Reflected Ray and Normal
15
Light and Reflection The Law of Reflection Incident Angle ( i ) = Reflected Angle ( r )
16
Light and Reflection Regular Reflection Diffuse Reflection
17
Light and Reflection Regular Reflection Light is Reflected Back to the Observer in Parallel Rays Off a Smooth Surface Diffuse Reflection Light is Reflected Back to the Observer in a Wide Range of Angles Due to a Rough Reflective Surface
18
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by a Plane Mirror Images are… Upright Equal Size Image Distance from Media Surface is Equal to the Object Distance from the Media Surface Reversed R to L
19
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by a Plane Mirror
20
Light and Reflection Real Image Light Rays Converge and Pass Through the Image Can Be Viewed on a Screen FC Real Image Object Ray 1 Ray 2
21
Light and Reflection Virtual Image Light Rays Diverge from a Point Behind the Mirror Rays of Light that Appear to be Reflected from the Virtual Image Actually are Reflected from the Object
22
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Concave Mirror R = Mirror Radius C = Center of Radius F = Focal Point FC R Principal Axis
23
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Concave Mirror FC R
24
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Concave Mirror Ray Tracing Object Position Observer Position Image Position FC Image Object Ray 1 Ray 2
25
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Concave Mirror Paraxial Rays Light Rays Near, but not Necessarily Parallel to the Center Axis FC R
26
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Concave Mirror Spherical Aberration Blurred Virtual Image Caused by Rays Other than Paraxial Rays Converging on Points Other than the Focal Point Small Diameter/Radius Ratio Helps Reduce SA FC R
27
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Convex Mirror FC R
28
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Convex Mirror FC R
29
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Convex Mirror Ray Tracing Object Position Observer Position Image Position F Image Object Ray 1 Ray 2
30
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Mirror Equation f = Focal Length of the Mirror d 0 = Distance Between the Object and the Mirror d i = Distance Between the Image and the Mirror FC R
31
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Magnification Equation m = Magnification h i = Image Height h o = Object Height FC R
32
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Conventions Focal Length + for Concave - for Convex d o + for Real Object - for Virtual Object
33
Light and Reflection The Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Conventions d i + for Real Image - for Virtual Image m + for Upright Image - for Inverted Image
34
Light and Reflection Parabolic Mirrors Eliminate Spherical Aberration
35

36
Light and Reflection ☺Color ☺White Light is All Colors Combined ☺Some Colors Absorbed ☺Some Colors Reflected ☺The Color We See is the Color Reflected ☺ALL WE SEE IS REFLECTED LIGHT!
37
