Refraction of light
Subject: Physics
Level: Key Stage 4
Resource type: Whiteboard presentation
Teaching type: Multimedia lesson

Description

At the end of this activity, students should be able to:
– describe how speed, wavelength and frequency of light change when light passes from one medium to another
– explain Fermat's principle
– calculate the refractive index
– give examples to explain the Law of Refraction
– describe the passage of light through a transparent plate
– list the conditions for total internal refraction and give examples of its application.

What do mirrors and lenses do to light? 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 mirror. 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). 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 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.
