Transparent Material that passes or transmits light.
Opaque Material that adsorbs light. No light will pass through.
Translucent Materials that light will shine through, but you cannot see clearly through it.
Red Green Blue Primary Colors (light)
Blue White Green Red
Color Blindness The color receptors in the eyes (cones) do not function correctly.
·Inherited Condition ·8% of Men ·½% of women Ability to distinguish between colors. Primarily red and green. Green cones are deficient.
Types of Lenses Convex Lens – A lens that is thicker in the center than at the edges. Converging Lens
Types of Lenses Concave Lens – A lens that is thinner in the center than at the edges. Diverging Lens
Focal Point Focal Point For a convex lens the point where parallel rays converge. Converging Lens
Focal Point Focal Point For a concave lens the point where parallel rays diverge. Diverging Lens
