Ex. 26.2 A concave mirror has a 30 cm radius of curvature.
If an object is placed 10 cm from the mirror, where will the
image be found?
f = R/2 = 15 cm, p = 10 cm
Case 5: p < f
1/p + 1/q = 1/f  1/10 + 1/q = 1/15
3/30 + 1/q = 2/30
1/q = -1/30
q = -30 cm
Real or Virtual
M = -q/p = 3
q < 0

Q. An upright image that is one-half as large as an object is
needed to be formed on a screen in a laboratory experiment
using only a concave mirror with 1 m radius of curvature.
If you can make this image, I will give you $10. If you can’t
you should pay me $10. Deal or no deal? Why?
1/p + 1/q = 1/f = 2/R > 0
M = -q/p = ½ > 0
should be a real image: q > 0
M = -q/p cannot be positive, if q > 0.
No deal!!!
Refraction and Lenses
Optical illusion: the pencil is not bent at the air-water boundary.
caused by non-trivial passage of light rays.
Refraction Details, 1


Light may refract
into a material
where its speed is
lower
The angle of
refraction is less
than the angle of
incidence
• The ray bends
toward the normal



Light may refract
into a material
where its speed is
higher
The angle of
refraction is
greater than the
angle of incidence
• The ray bends away
from the normal
The Index of Refraction


When light passes from one medium
to another, it is refracted because
the speed of light is different in the
two media
The index of refraction, n, of a
medium can be defined
speed of light in a vacuum c
n

speed of light in a medium v
Index of Refraction, cont



For a vacuum, n = 1
For other media, n > 1
n is a unitless ratio
Frequency Between Media

As light travels from
one medium to
another, its frequency
does not change
• Both the wave speed
and the wavelength do
change
• The wavefronts do not
pile up, nor are created
or destroyed at the
boundary, so ƒ must
stay the same
Index of Refraction Extended



The frequency stays the same as the wave
travels from one medium to the other
v=ƒλ
The ratio of the indices of refraction of the
two media can be expressed as various
ratios

Total Internal Reflection

Total internal
reflection can occur
when light
attempts to move
from a medium
with a high index
of refraction to one
with a lower index
of refraction
• Ray 5 shows
internal reflection
Critical Angle

A particular angle
of incidence will
result in an angle
of refraction of 90°
• This angle of
incidence is called
the critical angle

Critical Angle, cont

For angles of incidence greater than the
critical angle, the beam is entirely
reflected at the boundary
• This ray obeys the Law of Reflection at the
boundary

Total internal reflection occurs only when
light attempts to move from a medium of
higher index of refraction to a medium of
lower index of refraction
