The form of energy which enable us to see the things around us. It travels in a straight line. Such part of material from where the light can bounce back in to the same medium is known as the mirror. Such mirror which is a part of plane surface is known as the plane mirror. Such mirror which is a part of some spherical surface is known as the spherical mirror. Such spherical mirror which is shining from inner curved surface. Such spherical mirror which is shining from outer curves surface. The centre of the front circular section of the spherical mirror is known as the pole. The diameter of the front circular section of the spherical mirror is known as the aperture. The radius of the sphere of which a spherical mirror is a part is known as the radius of curvature. It is normally represented by R. The centre of the sphere of which a spherical mirror is a part is known as the centre of curvature. It is normally represented by C. The line passing through the pole and center of curvature is known as the principal Axis. The distance between the pole and the principal focus is known as focal length. It is normally represented by f. When the ray of life strikes to a shining surface it bounces back into the same medium this is known as reflection of light. (1) The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection. (2) The incident ray, reflected ray and the normal to the shining surface lies in the same plane. The ray of light before striking to the shining surface is known as incident ray. The ray of light after striking to the shining surface is known as reflected ray. The angle between the incident ray and the normal to the plane is known as angle of incidence. The angle between the reflected ray and the normal to the plane is known as angle of reflection. The equation which describes the relation among the focal length, distance of object from the pole and distance of image from the pole is known as mirror formula. OR The characteristics and location of an image formed by a spherical mirror can be determined from an equation which is known as the mirror formula. The ratio of height of image to the height of object is known as linear magnification. It is represented by m. The instrument which is used observes tiny (very small) object by enlarging their size is known as the microscope. The instrument which is used to observes distant objects clearly by increasing their size is known as the telescope. When a ray of light enters from one medium to another it deviate from its original path this is known as the refraction of light.

The ray of light before entering to the other medium is known as incident ray. The ray of light after entering to the other medium is known as refracted ray. The angle between the incident ray and the normal to the plane between the both surfaces is known as angle of incidence. The angle between the reflected ray and the normal to the plane between the both surfaces is known as angle of reflection. Such medium having greater relative density (mass per unit volume) is known as the denser medium. Such medium having lesser relative density (mass per unit volume) is known as the rare medium. The distance of object from the upper surface of the medium is known as the real depth. The distance of image from the upper surface of the medium is known as the apparent depth. When the angle of incidence is greater then the critical angle and ray of light enters from a denser medium to the rare medium then reflection takes place incited of refraction such reflection is known as the total internal reflection. OR When all the rays having angle of incidence greater than the critical angle are totally reflected back in the same medium obeying the laws of reflection, such a reflection of light is known as the total internal reflection. The angle of incidence in the denser medium for which the angle of refraction in the rare medium is equal to 900 is known as the critical angle. Such piece of transparent material whose two surfaces are triangular and three surfaces are rectangular is known as the prism. The angle opposite to the base of the prism is known as the angle of prism. It is represented by the A. The angle between the most incident ray and the last refracted ray is known as the angle of deviation. It is represented by D. The minimum value of angle of deviation is known as the angle of minimum deviation. It is represented by Dm. The splitting of light in to different colors is known as the dispersion of light. The pattern of different colors formed due to the dispersion of light is known as the light spectrum. The pattern of different colors formed due to the dispersion of sun light is known as the solar spectrum. Such prism which has one angle of 900 and the two angles of 450 is known as the totally reflecting prism. A naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays are bent to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky.
