A lens canbe thought ofas a series ofprisms.
The lensrefracts all the
rays to a pointcalled thepr inc ipal focus[F].
The distancebetween the
centre of thelens and F iscalled the focalleng th [ ] .
Imagineparallel rays
of light froma distantobject hittingthe lens.
Draw normal
lines [at 90 tothe surface] foreach ray.
Use the first
refraction ruleto work out theray direction.
Draw normallines where therays enter theair [at 90 to thesurface].
Work out thedirection of therefracted raysusing the secondrefract ion rule .
When light enters aless d ense medium[e.g. air], it bends awayfrom the normal.
Using Refraction : lenses
When light enters a moredense medium [e.g.glass], it bends towardsthe normal.

Drawing Ray Diagrams (1)
Draw one ray from the top of the objectparallel to the centre axis. This is refractedthrough the principal focus.
Draw a second ray through the centre of thelens. This passes straight on it is notrefracted at all!
Where the rays meet the image is formed.

Drawing Ray Diagrams (2)
Two light rays leave the object O and pass throughthe lens. Where they meet an image I is produced.This is a REAL, DIMINISHED and INVERTED image.

4. What do you think happens when
Parallel light rays strike a convex lens?They pass through thefocal point of the lens.
Diverging light rays?Emerge as a parallel beam if theypass though the focal point (F).

Use a ruler tomeasure the distancebetween the lens andthe screen - this isthe focal length [].
Using Refraction : lenses - finding
Chose adistant object[to get parallelrays of light].
Hold a plainwhite screenin one hand.
Hold the lens in the otherhand and move it closer tothe screen until a clearimage appears.

Refraction : lenses
1. Find the focal length [] of your lens.
2. Fix the lens to the centre of a metre rule and mark the distancesF and 2F either side of the lens.

3. Place the candle >2F away from the lens and move the screenuntil an image appears and record observations.
4. Repeat for the candle at 2F, between 2F and F, at F and betweenF and the lens.

Using refraction : lenses summary
There are two main types of lens:
Convex Concave
Convex lenses work by bending [refracting] raysof light to a principal focus.
The distance from the centre of the lens to theprincipal focus [F] is called the focal length [].
The image formed by a convex lens is inverted[back-to-front and upside-down].
The thicker the lens, the shorter the focallength[].
