CONVEX MIRRORS
- Spherical mirrors where the
reflective surface is on the
side curved outward.
- Produces upright but
smaller images.
The bending of
light when it
passes from one
medium into
another of varying
densities.
The bending of

Isaac Newton’s claim that light is made up of particles
was not enough to explain other light phenomena and
was later on abandoned by scientists.
In this experiment,
light was passed
through a plane with
two slits on it,
striking a screen
beyond the initial
plane.
When these
waves
intersect,
constructive
interference
occurs.
One of these
components can be
blocked through a
process called
POLARIZATION,
which further
proves that light is a
wave.
