Where does the image in a mirror sit, and why does a pool look shallower than it is? Spherical mirrors and the mirror formula, Snell's law, total internal reflection in diamonds and optical fibres, and refraction at a curved surface. It covers the unit of the Indian syllabus (NCERT, NEET, JEE Main) and the matching topic of A-Level, IB and AP.
A coin at the bottom of a bowl seems to rise when you pour in water. A pencil in a glass looks bent. In this course we find out why light bends when it goes from one material to another. We learn the laws of refraction and the refractive index, and we follow a ray through a glass slab.
