What’s In
In the previous module, you learned about the electromagnetic spectrum. In that
module, you have learned about the family of Electromagnetic waves or the different regions
of the Electromagnetic spectrum. One of these regions which you have learned is about the
visible light.
This module will allow you to study and learn about the properties of visible light as it
undergoes reflection and refraction and how images can be formed out of these properties.
We will be studying about reflection in plane and curved mirrors as well as the application of
their properties in optical instruments.
Notes to the Teacher

Your primary role in classroom is to identify situations which can
challenge students to learn specially at this time of Covid-19 pandemic. Despite
our present situation, let us be optimistic that quality education can still be
delivered to our students through Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM). It is your
role to explain the purpose of this instruction to the students. As the facilitator of
learning, find a sense of balance between the academic and nurturing aspects
of teaching and approach the learning experience in a positive, fun and non-
dominating way.
4
What’s New
How do you see yourself in a mirror? How do you compare the way you look and the
way your image look? Can you explain how your image is formed on the mirror? This new
lesson will lead you to the answer to these questions.
Light Reflection Defined

Reflection is the turning back of light rays when it hits a shiny surface like a mirror.
The Laws of Reflection:

There are two laws of reflection:
 The angle of incident ray is equal to the angle of reflected ray.

 The angle between the normal line and the reflected ray is the angle of
reflection.
The Two Kinds of Rays:

 Incident ray is the ray of light approaching the mirror.
 Reflected ray is the ray of light which leaves the mirror.
Normal Line:
 Normal line is an imaginary line that can be drawn perpendicular to the
surface of the mirror and used as reference point in determining the angle of
reflection and angle of incidence.
5
What is It
Reflection is the bouncing of light rays when it hits a surface like a plane mirror.
Plane mirrors exhibits regular reflection where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of
reflection. All plane shiny surfaces exhibit this kind of reflection. Irregular or diffused
reflection illuminates shaded areas such as under the trees and inside buildings. This is
observed in objects with irregular surfaces such as rocks, buildings etc.
The first law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of
reflection. The angle is measured between the normal line and the incident ray while the
angle of reflection is measured between the normal line and the reflected ray. The
arrowhead shows the direction of light.
The second law states that the normal line, incident ray and reflected ray all lie in the
same plane. That means, what you see on the mirror is an image which appears to be at the
back of the mirror.
The characteristics of images formed by plane mirrors is describe in terms of type of
image, orientation, location and size. For plane mirrors, the type of image is virtual formed
behind. Virtual image is an image formed when an outgoing ray from an object always
diverge (move apart). The image you see when you are looking at yourself in a plane mirror
is virtual. This image is formed by extending the light rays behind the mirror. The image
orientation is erect, laterally inverted
The image is located at the same distance from the mirror as the object distance.
The image formed is of the same size as the object. In other words, the image and the object
in plane mirrors has the same characteristics except that the image is seen as laterally
inverted. Lateral inversion is a phenomenon wherein what is left on the object appears as
right on the image and vice versa, This is due to the direction that light follows when it strikes
a reflecting surface generally like a mirror.
6
What’s More
The following activities will deepen your understanding of what we have discussed
about reflection of light in mirrors. There will be three activities for you to undergo. These
activities are designed in a manner that you can do it at home while we are waiting for the
normal classroom setting to come back. Meantime, just enjoy learning these activities
through this module.
Activity 1.1 Reflection of Light in Mirrors

Objectives:
1. Determine the height, width and the distance from the mirror of the image formed by
a plane mirror.
2. Compare the actual height, width and the distance from the mirror of the object with
that of the image formed by plane mirrors.
Materials:

Activity 1.2: Angle of Incidence vs. Angle of Reflection
Objectives:
1. Compare the angle of reflection and the angle of incidence.
2. State one of the Laws of Reflection.
Procedure:
3. Examine the figure below. Give a statement on the angle of incidence and angle of
reflection. Remember that the angle of incidence is the angle between the normal line
and the incident ray. The angle of reflection is the angle between the normal line and the
reflected ray. The normal line is a line drawn perpendicular to the mirror.
Note: If, you have an available plane mirror at home, an ordinary laser light and a
protractor, you may try doing the activity given below. It would be an exciting learning
experience. Simply follow the set-up shown on the figure.
Caution: Be careful in handling the mirror and laser light.Never focus the laser to
your eyes or to anybody’s eyes as it may cause damage to the eyes.
Q3. How does the angle of incidence compare with the angle of reflection?
Activity 1.3: Mirror Left Right Reversal

Additional Activities
Apply your knowledge of the law of reflection by constructing your own periscope.
These are your materials needed.
Any cardboard Ruler
Two small mirrors Pencil or pen
Cutter Masking tape
Let us dissect the word Periscope. If you notice, it is composed of two words: Peri, a
Greek word which means "around," and Scopus, "to look." Therefore a, periscope lets you
look around walls, corners, or other obstacles. Sub-marines have periscopes so in order for
the sailors inside to see what’s on the surface of the water, even if the ship itself is below the
water, they will use the periscope.
Here are your tasks after constructing your periscope:
1. Explain how light travels in a periscope.
2. Illustrate the path of light as it is reflected in the two mirrors.
How to construct your periscope?

1. Form three rectangular tubes, one should be longer than the other two. The two
other tubes should be of the same size and length.
This is how your periscope will look like. Position the two mirrors at 450
Angle as shown.

What’s In
In the previous lesson, you learned about the characteristics of images

formed by plane mirrors. This new lesson will allow you to explore curved mirrors.
You are as well expected to determine the characteristics of images formed by
curved mirrors.
Have you tried looking at your face on a spoon? How does your image look
on the concave part? How about on the convex side? What kind of mirrors are used
in Department stores? Why?
What’s New
To give you an idea of the next lesson, try looking at your image on both
sides (concave and convex) of your spoon. What have you noticed? This is a
reflection on curved mirrors.
A curved mirror is a reflecting surface in which its section is a section of a
sphere. There are two kinds of curved mirrors, the concave and the convex. A spoon
is a kind of curved mirror with a concave side (front side) and the convex side (back).
21
What is It
A concave mirror is called converging mirror because the parallel incident

rays converge or meet/intersect at a focal point. Remember that a focal point as you
can see on the illustration is the point at which rays meet after reflection.
Image Source: https://www.teachoo.com/10825/3118/Parts-of-Concave-and-Convex-Mirror/

category/Concepts/
A convex mirror is called diverging mirror because the parallel incident rays
diverge after reflection. When extending the reflected rays behind the mirror as
shown, the rays converge at the focus behind the mirror. Now try to explore further
on the characteristics of images formed by curved mirrors.

Plane mirrors and convex mirrors both produce only a virtual image. A real
image can only be seen in a concave mirror at a condition that the object will be
placed at a distance greater than the focal length from the surface of the mirror. The
image formed will be in an upright position and reduced in size.
The Law of reflection for plane mirrors remains true for both concave and convex
mirrors. When light rays reflect off a concave mirror, the rays converge at a point called the
focus. The focal length is measured from the reflective surface to the focus. The image
produced by concave mirrors are reduced in size and it is a real image. Convex mirrors on
the other hand create an image bigger than the object which is virtual.
Here is an illustration of a curved mirror.

Q10. When the object is brought closer to the concave mirror. What happens to
it’s size and location?
Q11. What generalization can you arrive at from the nature of images formed by
Convex and concave mirrors.
Now, let us determine the characteristics of the images formed by curved mirrors using
mirror equation.
1/f = 1/p + 1/q Mirror Equation
Where:
f - is the focal length or distance from the mirror and the focal point (F)
p - Distance of the object from the mirror
q - distance of the image from the mirror
The sign convention for mirrors:
 f is + if the mirror is concave

 f is – if the lens is convex
 q is + if the image is real and located on the object side of the mirror
 q is – if the image is virtual and located behind the mirror
 h’ is + if the image is upright
 h’ is – if the image is inverted
Where:
f - is the focal length or distance from the mirror
q - is the distance of the image from the mirror
h’ - is the height of the image
Sample Exercises using the mirror equation:

1. A 5.00 cm. tall light bulb is placed at a distance of 45.0 cm from a concave mirror having
a focal length of 10.5 cm Determine the image distance and the image size.
Given:
Height of the object h=5.00 cm
Distance of the object =45.0 cm
Focal point = 10.5 cm
Find:
Distance of the image, q=?
24
Height of the image, h =?
1/f = 1/p + 1/q

1/10.5 cm = 1/45.0 cm + 1/q
q=13.7 cm
The image height can be determined using the magnification equation. Since
three of the four quantities in the equation are known, the fourth quantity can be
calculated.
h’/h=-q/p
h’/5.00 cm = -13.7/45.0 cm
h’= (5.00 cm) (-13.7 cm)/45.0 cm
h’= -1.52 cm
Note: A negative value for image height indicates an inverted image
Exercises: Do it yourself.
1. What is the image distance and image height if a 7.00 cm tall object is placed
30.0 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 10.0 cm?
2. What is the focal length of a convex mirror that produces an image that appears
15.0 cm behind the mirror when the object is 27.5 cm from the mirror?
What I Have Learned
1. Using the equation 1/f = 1/p + 1/q, for all locations in front of a convex
mirror, where does the image seem to appear always? Explain. (5 pts.)
2. It is therefore considered that the value of image distance, q is negative.
What does the negative value for image distance mean? (5 pts.)
3. In the same manner, the focus, F in a concave mirror is located on the
other side of the mirror (behind the mirror), thus the focal length is also
negative. What is meant by the negative value of a focal length in a

What’s In
Have you ever asked yourself why we see a colorful array of colors in a sky
(rainbow)? Have you observed the appearance of a pencil placed in a glass half filled
with water? Or have you notice how your body looks when standing on a waist deep
water in a swimming pool? What might have caused all these phenomena?
Refraction is the bending of light rays due to change in its speed as it travels
from one medium to another. A lens is a molded piece of transparent material that
refracts light rays in such a way as to form an image. As a ray of light enters a lens, it
is refracted, and as the same ray of light exits the lens, it is again refracted.
A lens is an optical device that disperses light beam by way of refraction. To
determine the exact location and size of the image formed in lenses, a lens equation
is needed. The mirror equation also applies to both concave and convex lens.
What’s New
A lens is a transparent glass with curved sides for concentrating or dispersing

light rays. Some devices which use lenses are cameras, binoculars, telescopes and
microscopes. Probably, you have already tried using a magnifying lens. What have
you notice as you vary the distance between the object and the lens, and the image
and the lens? We will be describing the images formed by lenses based on the
location of the object in relation to the lens as we proceed to the lesson.
What is It?
Convex Lens:
A lens that is thicker in the center than at the edges is called a convex lens,
they are bent towards the center.
31
Image Source:http://www.passmyexams.co.uk/GCSE/physics/concave-lenses-convex-lenses.html
The point at which the light converge is the focal point. Light is refracted as it
enters a lens and again as it leaves the lens. The amount of refraction will depend on
the degree to which the lens is curved. A very curved lens will refract light more than
a lens whose surface is only slightly curved. In a very curved lens, the converging
rays will meet at a focal point closer to the lens. Thus, the focal length of a very
curved lens is shorter than that of a slightly curved lens. Because a lens converges
light, it can form a real image. However, a convex lens can also form a virtual image.
The kind of image a convex lens forms depends on the position of the object.
If an object is placed more than one focal length, but less than two focal
lengths beyond a convex lens, the image formed is inverted and larger than the
object. An example of this image is the image formed by a convex lens in a
microscope and a slide projector.
If an object is placed between a convex lens and it’s focal point, a virtual
image is formed. The virtual image is erect and larger than the object. For this
reason, convex lenses can be used as magnifying glass.
The lens of your eye is a convex lens. It is not a hard and rigid lens, but rather
a soft and flexible one. So, it can easily change shape to allow you to see clear
images of objects both near and far.
Ideally, the image formed by the convex lens of the eye should fall directly on
the retina. In certain cases, the image falls in front of the retina because the eyeball
is too long. This is called near sightedness. The lens of a near sighted person is too
convex. A concave lens is used to correct near sightedness.
If the eyeball is too short, the image is focused behind the retina. This
condition is called farsightedness. The lens of a farsighted person is not convex
enough. The rays of light converge at a point behind the retina. A convex lens is used
to correct farsightedness.
Concave Lens:
A lens that is thicker at the edges and thinner at the center is a concave lens. As
parallel rays of light pass through a concave lens, they are bent toward the edges and the
light rays diverge.
All images produced by concave lenses are erect and smaller than the object.
Concave lenses are most often used along with convex lenses to help form a sharper image.
Let us use the lens equation to determine the characteristics of the images
formed by lenses. For a concave lens, the image will always be located on the side
32
where the object is also located. It this case, the value of image distance is negative.
The focal length of a concave lens is negative while positive for a convex lens. The
negative value for image height means an inverted image
When lens equation is used in determining the characteristics of images
formed by lenses, we will refer to this sign convention for lenses.
The sign convention for lenses:
 f is + if the lens is double convex

 f is – if the lens is double concave
 q is + if the image is real and located behind the lens
 q is – if the image is virtual and located on the object side of the lens
 h’ is + if the image is upright (also virtual)
 h’ is – if the image is inverted (also real)
Where:
 f is the focal length and distance of the object from the lens
 q is the distance of the image from the lens
 h’ is the height of the image
This equation called the mirror equation applies to both concave and convex
lenses. There are two cases which we are going to consider:
1/f = 1/p + 1/q
Where:
f – is the focal length or distance from the mirror and the focal point (F)
p – Distance of the object from the mirror
q – distance of the image from the mirror
Sample Problem:
What is the image distance and image size if a 5.00 cm. tall light bulb placed a
distance of 45.5 cm. from a convex lens having a focal length of 15.4 cm ?
Given
h=5.00 cm. p=45.5 cm. f=15.4
Find:
d=? q=?
Substituting the equation: 1/f = 1/p + 1/q
1/15.4 cm=1/45.5 cm.+1/q
1/15.4 cm – 1/45.5 cm. =1/q
33
45.5 cm-15.4 cm/ (15.4 cm) (45.5 cm.) =1/q
Q= 23.3 cm.
Since we now have a value for three of the four quantities in the magnification
equation, we can now calculate the height of the image.
h’/h=-q/p
h’/5.00 cm=-23 cm/45.5 cm.
h’= (5.00 cm.) (-23.3 cm.)/45.5 cm
h’ =-2.54 cm.
Now for you to have a clearer understanding of the images formed by lenses,
if you have internet connection, watch this video. Watch attentively and take hold of a
pen and paper for you to jot down the characteristics of images formed by lenses.
