Total internal reflection: Critical angle; examples in triangular glass prisms; comparison with reflection from a plane mirror (qualitative only). Applications of total internal reflection. 2. Lenses (converging and diverging) including characteristics of the images formed (using ray diagrams only); magnifying glass; location of images using ray diagrams and thereby determining magnification. 3. Using a triangular prism to produce a visible spectrum from white light; Electromagnetic spectrum; Scattering of light.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for an explanation of several concepts related to optics, including total internal reflection, lenses, and the use of a prism to generate a spectrum. Each topic requires a qualitative comparison or a description of diagrams and effects related to light behavior.
