The Physics Classroom: Ray Diagrams for Concave Mirrors Case A

For Students 9th - 10th
Ray diagrams are useful tools for determining the location of an image as produced by a concave mirror. All concave and convex mirror ray diagrams can be constructed from knowledge of the behavior of two rays. Learn here about ray diagrams.

The Physics Classroom: Image Formation for Concave Mirrors Case A

For Students 9th - 10th
This animation depicts the path of light to each person's eye. Different people are sighting in different directions; yet each person is sighting at the same image location. In this animation the image location is the intersection point...
