PHENOMENIA

OF
LIGHT
GROUP 4
11-HUMSS C
Smooth reflecting surface associated with mirrors.There are two kinds of MIRRORS
a PLANE MIRROR and SPHERICAL MIRROR.

There are two types of Spherical Mirror.The Convex and Concave Mirror.

Concave Mirror is the one that bulges outward.It usually shows thing the
right way up smaller.The appearance of the image depends on how close
the objects to it.If the object is close to a concave mirror the image appears
bigger and right away up.If the object further away it may look similar
and iverted.
When you look at the reflecting surface of a spoon the outer bulging part acts like convex
mirror.You will see an upright and smaller image of yourself.Figure 9 demonstrates how the
image is forms in a convex mirror like your observation
when you look in the bulging part of the spoon.

The inner hallowed part of the spoon acts like a concave mirror.You saw an iverted smaller
image of yourself because you are located beyond the curvature of the spoon.Figure 10
demonstrates how the image is formed to a concave mirror like your
observations.

Refraction too plays a role in different phenoming. It explains optical illustrations found in nature
like minage and rainbow.It is also the reason behind the halos around the sun or moon.

MIRAGE
-Mirage is the deceptive appearance of distance object caused by bending of Light
rays(refraction)of Light rays in layers of air of varying density.

Refraction also plays a vital role in the information of haloes or ring of light around the sun and
moon.This take place as Light refracts from hexagonal ice crystals present in circus clouds acting
like a prism with a cross section of an equilateral triangle.These prism like crystals can produce
haloes of various size but most commonly has an angular radius of 22 degrees.If the hexagonal
crystals are oriented with their flat faces horizontal,then a sundog observed.
An example of MIRAGE
Another phenomenon with reflection in our seeing colors. The colors of the object we see
depends on its ability to reflect or to transmit the light included to it. It is depends on the
objects natural vibrating frequencie If the object opaque. Some of the frequency of the Visible
light is absorbed, while others reflected. If the object is transparent, some of the frequencies
of light are also absorved while allowing some to pass through. This tell us the color of the
object whether it is opaque or transparent. This is called selective reflection and selective
transmission. It is inherit to the object.

It is important to note that the primary colors of light are red. blue and green. Adding all of
this will give us White light. The complimentary colors on the other hand, are magenta yellow
and cyan. Remembering this will help you to identify colors of objects when Selective
reflection and transmission tates place.
A mirror is a reflective surface that
MIRRO bounces off light,producing either a real
R image or a virtual image.

Light is an electromagnetic radiation that


can be detected by the human eye.It has the
LIGH
properties of a particle and a wave.
T

Rainbow are the result of the reflection of


RAINBO Light.Both are phenomena that involve a
W change in a wave direction.
Light has the ability to undergo processes like
REFLECTION,REFRACTION,DISPERSION,DIFFRACTIO
N.
REFLECTION OF LIGHT

Occurs when the waves encounter a


surface or other boundary that does not
absorb the energy of the radiation and
bounces the waves away from the
surface.
REFRACTION OF LIGHT

As it passes from one transparent


substance into another.This bending by
refraction makes it possible for us to
have lenses,magnifying glasses,prisms
and rainbows.
DIFFRACTION OF
LIGHT
Is the phenomenon in which
the phrase velocity of a wave
depends on its.

Light bends when it passes


around an edge or through a
slit.

DISPERSION OF
LIGHT
