We will now discuss the formation of different types of images by a convex lens when the object is placed 1. At infinity 2. Beyond 2F 3. At 2F 4. Between F and 2F 5. At the focus F 6. Between the focus F and optical centre C 1. Image formed by a convex lens when...

Following are the rules which are used for obtaining the images formed by spherical lenses. A ray of light from the object parallel to the principal axis of a lens passes through the principal focus (of a convex lens) or appears to pass through the principal focus (of...

A lens is a portion of a transparent glass bound by two spherical surfaces. Lenses are of two types: Convex Lens or Convergent Lens:- A convex lens is thick in the middle and thin at the edges. Concave Lens or Divergent Lens:- A concave...

Following are the effects of refraction of light in our daily life. A swimming pool always looks shallower than it really is, because the light coming from the bottom of the pool bends when it comes out at the surface due to refraction of light. A straight stick which...

Following are the laws of refraction of light: Whenever light goes from one medium to another the velocity of light changes. The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane. The ratio of sine of the angle of...
