The Physics Classroom: Reflection and Ray Model of Light: Right Angle Mirrors
Discover how light reacts when it strikes mirrors which are placed at right angles to each other.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Reflection/ray Model of Light: Multiple Mirror Systems
Illustrated examples and practice problems included in this tutorial help students discover how light rays react in multiple mirror systems.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom:reflection/ray Model of Light: Reflection/image Formation
Through diagrams and illustrations, students explore how images are formed through the physics law of reflection.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Reflection/ray Model of Light: Reflection Rules Concave
Students learn two rules of reflection as it has to do with concave mirrors. These two rules will greatly simplify the task of determining the image locations for objects placed in front of concave mirrors.
