Travel in a straight line
Reflection of Light:- The Phenomena of bending of the light from the polished surface.

Reflection and Refraction of the Light MOB. No. = +917837110934
Reflection through Plane mirror:-
Image formed by plane always Virtual , Erect , and Inverted
Size of image is equal to the size of Object
The image formed is as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.
Spherical Mirrors :- Are of two types depending on the reflecting surface
Concave mirror Convex mirror
Reflecting surface is curved inward Reflecting surface is curved outward
Centre of curvature lie in front of reflecting surface Centre of curvature lie behind of reflecting surface
Focus of Concave mirror lies in front of reflecting surface and always Negative
Focus of Convex mirror lies behind of reflecting surface and always Positive
Image mostly formed is Real and inverted, only in one case when object b/w P and F image formed is Virtual and erect.
Image mostly formed is Virtual and erect, only in one case when object b/w P and F image formed is Real and inverted.
Application :- 1) Torches, Search-lights, Vehicles headlights 2) Shaving mirrors 3) Used by Dentists to see large image of teeth. 4) in solar furnaces to produce heat from sunlight
Application:- 1) used as rear view mirrors in vehicles to see the traffic in erected and diminished image.
Terms of Spherical Mirrors:-
1) Pole (P) :- Centre of the reflecting surface of spherical mirror
2) Centre of Curvature (C):- Centre of sphere of Which spherical mirror forms
Centre of curvature is not part of the mirror
3) Radius of Curvature (R):- Radius of sphere of which the spherical mirror forms
4) Principal axis:- A straight line passing through the pole and centre of curvature
5) Focus(F):- The point of the spherical where all the rays are meet/concentrated after reflecting from spherical
mirrors.

6) Focal length (f):- Distance of image from the position of the mirror.
7) Aperture:-The diameter of the reflecting surface of spherical mirror is called aperture.
8) The Radius of curvature is equal to twice of focal length. (R =2f) this implies that the principal focus of a special mirror
lies midway the pole and centre of curvature.

Refraction of Light:- The Phenomenon in which when light travel from one medium to another medium, the
direction of propagation of light is changed in the second medium is known as Refraction of Light.
Eg. 1) Pencil appear to displaced
2) Coin appear to raised
3) Printed matter on letter appear to raised when thick glass slab is placed over it.
Refraction through Glass slab :-
Law's of Refraction of Light:-
1) The incident ray, the refracted ray and normal all lies in same
Plane and are interfaces at two transparent media at the point of incident.
2) The ratio of sine of angle of incidence to sine of the angle of refraction is
constant and this known as Snell's law of refraction.
This constant value is called the Refractive index

Refractive Index :-
Refractive index of Air = 1.0003 if n or µ > (Shows denser medium) Refractive index of Water = 1.33 if n or µ < (Shows rear medium) Refractive index of Glass = 1.52 Refractive index in Ice = 1.31 Refractive index of Ruby = 1.71 Refractive index of Diamond = 2.42
