  2. OPTICS 13.4 What do mirrors and lenses do to light? Using skills, knowledge and understanding of how science works: • to construct ray diagrams to show the formation of images by plane, convex and concave mirrors • to construct ray diagrams to show the formation of images by diverging lenses and converging lenses • to explain the use of a converging lens as a magnifying glass and in a camera • to calculate the magnification produced by a lens or mirror using the formula: magnification = image height / object height Skills, knowledge and understanding of how science works set in the context of: • The normal is a construction-line perpendicular to the reflecting/refracting surface at the point of incidence. • The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. • The nature of an image is defined by its size relative to the object, whether it is upright or inverted relative to the object and whether it is real or virtual. • The nature of the image produced by a plane mirror. • The nature of the image produced by a convex mirror. • The nature of the image produced by a concave mirror for an object placed at different distances from the lens. • Refraction at an interface. • Refraction by a prism. • The nature of the image produced by a diverging lens. • The nature of the image produced by a converging lens for an object placed at different distances from the lens. • The use of a converging lens in a camera to produce an image of an object on a detecting device (eg film).

  3. Reflection

  4. incident ray angle of incidence, i normal angle of reflection, r mirror reflected ray Law of Reflection The angle of incidence (i) is equal to the angle of reflection (r) Note: Both angles are measured with respect to the ‘normal’. Thisis a construction line that is perpendicularto the reflecting surface at the point ofincidence.

  5. image object construction lines (virtual light rays) normals plane mirror The image formed by a plane mirror • The image produced by the plane mirror is: • The same size as the object • The same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front • Upright (the same way up as the object) • Back-to-front compared with the object (lateral inversion) • Virtual

  6. Real and virtual images REAL images are formed where light rays cross after reflection by a mirror or refraction by a lens. Real images can be cast onto a screen. Example: A projector image VIRTUAL images are formed where light rays only appear to come from. A virtual image cannot be cast onto a screen. Example: The image formed by a plane mirror

  30. Refraction

  31. Refraction occurs when a wave changes speed as it passes from one region to another. This speed change usually causes the wave to change direction. Water waves slow down as they pass over from a deeper to a shallower region. Light slows down as it passes from air into glass, perspex or water.

  32. AIR GLASS normal angle of refraction angle of incidence Refraction of light at a plane surface (a) Less to more optical dense transition (e.g. air to glass) Light bends TOWARDS the normal. The angle of refraction is LESS than the angle of incidence.

  33. angle of refraction normal angle of incidence WATER AIR (b) More to less optical dense transition (e.g. water to air) Light bends AWAY FROM the normal. The angle of refraction is GREATER than the angle of incidence.

  34. Refraction experiment Typical results: No deviation occurs when the angle of incidence is zero. Increasing the angle of incidence increases the deviation.

  41. Refraction ANSWERS In text questions: • Yes • The top part moves faster than the lower part of the wave so the wave topples over at the top. • The same. • (i) Slower (ii) Faster Summary questions: 1. (a) Decreases, towards. (b) Increases, away from. (c) Decreases (b) White light consists of all the colours of the spectrum. The beam is split into these colours because each colour is refracted slightly differently, owing to their different speeds in glass.
