J.M. Gabrielse
A ray of light is an extremely narrow beam of light.

J.M. Gabrielse
All visible objects emit or reflect light rays in all directions.

J.M. Gabrielse
Our eyes detect light rays.

We see images when light rays
converge in our eyes.
converge: come together

Reflection(bouncing light)
Reflection is when light changes direction by bouncing off a surface.
When light is reflected off a mirror, it hits the mirror at the same angle (the incidence angle, θi) as it reflects off the mirror (the reflection angle, θr).
The normal is an imaginary line which lies at right angles to the mirror where the ray hits it.

Light reflected off the mirror converges to form an image in the eye.
The eye perceives light rays as if they came through the mirror.
Imaginary light rays extended behind mirrors are called sight lines.

Light reflected off the mirror converges to form an image in the eye.
The eye perceives light rays as if they came through the mirror.
Imaginary light rays extended behind mirrors are called sight lines.
The image is virtual since it is formed by imaginary sight lines, not real light rays.

Refraction(bending light)
Refraction is when light bends as it passes from one medium into another.
When light traveling through air passes into the glass block it is refracted towards the normal.
When light passes back out of the glass into the air, it is refracted away from the normal.
Since light refracts when it changes mediums it can be aimed. Lenses are shaped so light is aimed at a focal point.

LensesThe first telescope, designed and built by Galileo, used lenses to focus light from faraway objects, into Galileo’s eye. His telescope consisted of a concave lens and a convex lens.
Light rays are always refracted (bent) towards the thickest part of the lens.

Concave Lenses
Concave lenses are thin in the middle and make light rays diverge (spread out).
If the rays of light are traced back (dotted sight lines), they all intersect at the focal point (F) behind the lens.
