PhysicsCurved Mirrors Principle purpose of this lecture is to present on Curved Mirrors. It is a tutorial study based lecture. A convex mirror is a spherical reflecting surface (or…
PhysicsLecture on Spherical Mirrors Spherical mirrors are mirrors whose surfaces form a part of a hollow sphere. The spheres can be made of glass or any polished metal surfaces.…
PhysicsOptics and Mirrors Major purpose of this lecture is to present on Optics and Mirrors. Rays seem to come from behindthe mirror, but, of course, theydon’t. It is virtually as…
PhysicsPresentation on Reflection The aim of this lecture is to present on Reflection. Law of Reflection: the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. The angle which the incident ray…
PhysicsLight: Geometric Optics Prime purpose of this lecture is to present on Light: Geometric Optics. Light travels in straight lines under a wide variety of circumstances. Light travels in straight line…
PhysicsPresentation on Light and Optics General purpose of this lecture is to present on Light and Optics. Optics is the branch of physics which involves the behaviour and properties of light, including…
PhysicsLecture on Diffraction Gratings A different grating has numerous tiny slits, equally spaced. It separates white light into its component colors just as a double slit would. When a…
PhysicsHuygen’s Principle Christiaan Huygens, a contemporary of Newton, was an advocate of the wave theory of light. Huygen’s principle states that a wave crest can be thought…
PhysicsLecture on Concave Mirrors This lecture introduce on Concave Mirrors. A curved mirror is a mirror with a curved reflecting surface. One advantage that mirror optics have over lens optics is that mirrors do not introduce chromatic…
PhysicsReflecting Telescopes Galileo was the first to use a refracting telescope for astronomy. It is difficult to make large refracting telescopes, though, because the objective lens becomes…
PhysicsRefracting Telescopes Refracting telescopes are comprised of two convex lenses. The objective lens collects light from a distant source, converging it to a focus and forming a…
PhysicsHuman Eye: Hyperopia and Myopia Primary objective of this lecture is to present on Human Eye: Hyperopia and Myopia. The human eye is a fluid-filled object that focuses images of objects on…
