Study Notes
Reflections
- Reflections occur on a smooth surface in the first part of the text.
- The type of surface involved in the first part of the text is a smooth surface.
Mirrors
- A curved surface is involved in reflections using a spherical mirror.
Light Speed
- The index that compares the speed of light in a vacuum with its speed in a medium is called the refractive index.
- The ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to its speed in a specific medium is described by the term refractive index.
