What is Ray 1 in the context of light rays?

Back

Ray 1 is a specific path that light follows, often used in diagrams to illustrate the behavior of light.

Front

Is it possible for light to reflect off a surface?

Back

Yes, light can reflect off surfaces, which is a fundamental principle of optics.

Front

What type of image is formed by a concave mirror when the object is beyond the center of curvature?

Back

A real image is formed by a concave mirror when the object is beyond the center of curvature.

Front

What type of lens causes parallel rays of light to diverge?

Back

A diverging lens causes parallel rays of light to diverge.

Front

What does it mean if an answer is labeled as 'incorrect' in a multiple-choice question?

Back

It means that the selected option does not accurately answer the question or does not meet the criteria set by the question.

Front

What is the definition of a virtual image?

Back

A virtual image is an image that cannot be projected onto a screen because the light rays do not actually converge.

Front

What is the difference between real and virtual images?

Back

Real images can be projected onto a screen and are formed by converging light rays, while virtual images cannot be projected and are formed by diverging light rays.

Front

What is a converging lens?

Back

A converging lens is a lens that brings parallel rays of light to a focus.

Front

What happens to light rays when they pass through a diverging lens?

Back

Light rays passing through a diverging lens spread out or diverge.

Front

What is the principle of reflection?

Back

The principle of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
