Light RaysMathematical rays never bend
But light rays can, if they interact with materials!

Let’s take a closer look at a plane mirror

normal
A normal is a line that is perpendicular
to the mirror.

Ray tracingRay tracing is a method of constructing an
image using the model of light as a ray.We use ray tracing to construct optical
images produced by mirrors and lenses.Ray tracing lets us describe what happens to
the light as it interacts with a medium.

Law of Reflection
The angle of incidence of reflected light equals the angle of reflection.
r = I
Note that angles are measured relative to a normal to the mirror surface.

Identification of the focus of a spherical concave mirror
+ -Rays parallel to the principle axis all pass through the focus for a spherical concave mirror.

Ray tracing: spherical concave mirrorThe three “principle rays” to construct an
image for a spherical concave mirror arethe p-ray, which travels parallel to the
principle axis, then reflects through focus.the f-ray, which travels through focus, then
reflects back parallel to the principle axis.the c-ray, which travels through center, then
reflects back through center.You must draw two of the three principle
rays to construct an image.

image for an object located outside the center of curvature.
It is only necessary to draw 2 of the three principle rays!

happens to the size of the image as an object is brought nearer to a spherical concave mirror when the object outside the focus.
