2. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Standing electromagnetic waves Electromagnetic waves can be reflected by a conductor or dielectric, which can lead to standing waves. (See Figure 32.22 below.) Electromagnetic waves can be reflected by a conductor or dielectric, which can lead to standing waves. (See Figure 32.22 below.) Mathematically, standing waves are a superposition of incoming and outgoing waves. Mathematically, standing waves are a superposition of incoming and outgoing waves.

6. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. The nature of light  Light has properties of both waves and particles. The wave model is easier for explaining propagation, but some other behavior requires the particle model.  The rays are perpendicular to the wave fronts ( cross sections of the wave which are in phase ).  This chapter will concentrate on the ray perspective

Reflection and refraction in three cases Figure 33.8 below shows three important cases: Figure 33.8 below shows three important cases: If n b > n a, the refracted ray is bent toward the normal. If n b > n a, the refracted ray is bent toward the normal. If n b < n a, the refracted ray is bent away from the normal. If n b < n a, the refracted ray is bent away from the normal. A ray oriented along the normal never bends. A ray oriented along the normal never bends.
