Geometric Optics - Mirrors - PhET Interactive Simulations
WEBHow does a lens or mirror form an image? See how light rays are refracted by a lens or reflected by a mirror. Observe how the image changes when you adjust the focal length of the lens, move the object, or move the screen.
WEBGeometrical optics is the treatment of the passage of light through lenses, prisms, etc. by representing the light as rays. A light ray from a source goes in a straight line through the air, but when it encounters a lens, prism, or mirror it …

WEBLearn the basics of geometric optics with this interactive simulation by exploring lenses, mirrors, and light rays in various scenarios.
WEBGeometrical optics is an intuitive and efficient approximation: Radios and mobile phones make use of same Maxwell Equations to transfer information as carried by light waves, but our perception is quite different. Why? We tend to …
2: Geometric Optics and Image Formation - Physics LibreTexts
WEBFeb 20, 2022 · This chapter introduces the major ideas of geometric optics, which describe the formation of images due to reflection and refraction. It is called “geometric” optics because the images can be characterized …
