Pregunta Respuesta
CONVERGING LENS Makes rays converge
DIVERGING LENS Makes rays spread out
REFRACTION-AIR TO GLASS TOWARDS NORMAL
REFRACTION-GLASS TO AIR AWAY FROM NORMAL
REFRACTION CHANGING DIRECTION OF WAVES WHEN THEY TRAVEL ACROSS A BOUNDARY FROM ONE MEDIUM TO ANOTHER
REFRACTIVE INDEX sini ÷ sinr
i = 10 r = 6.5 n = ? n = 1.54
i = 20 r = 13 n = ? n = 1.52
REFRACTIVE INDEX 1 ÷ sinc c = critical angle
Magnification Hi ÷ Ho
1 ÷ (d from o to l) + 1 ÷ (d from l to i) = 1 ÷ focal length
Iris Controls amount of light entering the eye BRIGHT LIGHT-EXPANDS (LETS IN SMALL AMOUNT) DIM LIGHT-CONTRACTS (LETS IN LARGE AMOUNT)
Lens Focuses light onto retina
retina Light sensitive cells around the inside of the eye
Optic nerve Transfers signals from retina to brain
Eye muscles Move eye
Ciliary muscles fine focusing. CONTRACT AND SQUEEZE LENS SO ITS FATTER TO FOCUS ON CLOSE UP THINGS. RELAX LENS TO SEE THINGS FAR AWAY
Pupil where light enters eye
Cornea Focuses the view on Retina
Myopia-Short sighted Eye lens too strong Fix with diverging lens
Long sighted Eye lens too weak Fix with converging lens
1 ÷ Focal length in metres = power of lens
TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION OCCURS WHEN THE ANGLE OF INCIDENCE OF A LIGHT RAY IN A TRANSPARENT MEDIUM IS GREATER THAN THE CRITICAL ANGLE.
AN EXAMPLE OF SOMETHING THAT USES TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION ENDOSCOPE
HOW ENDOSCOPE WORKS TWO BUNDLES OF OPTIC FIBRES. INSERTED IN THROAT ONE SHINES LIGHT ONE CARRIES LIGHT BACK TO THE OBSERVER. LENS FORMS AN IMAGE ON THE END OF FIBRES. PROCESS-TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION
THE IMAGE PRODUCED BY A DIVERGING LENS IS VIRTUAL
WHEN THE OBJECT IS NEARER TO THE LENS THAN THE PRINCIPAL FOCUS WITH A CONVERGING LENS THE IMAGE PRODUCED IS VIRTUAL
POSITION AND NATURE OF IMAGE FORMED BY A LEN DEPENDS ON FOCAL LENGTH DISTANCE FROM OBJECT TO LENS
