Science Flashcards
Optical device used for recording images.
camera
It is the point that halfway between the center of curvature and vertex
Focal point
Similar to eyelid of the human eye
Shutter
Refers to a point in the center of the sphere which mirror sliced
Center of curvature
Hole behind the camera
Aperture
Also known as diverging mirror
Convex mirror
Similar to Iris
Diahpraghm
Imaginary line passing through the center of the sphere at the exact center of the mirror
Principal axis
Focus light to produce bright and clear images
Converging lense
It is a point on the mirrors surface where the principal axis meets the mirror
Vertex
Forms an image with object at one distance in focus
Low F number
The image produced is dependent on the positioning of the object being viewed in the mirror
Concave mirror
Form a sharp image of an object
High F number
Technique that uses three reference rays in order to locate the image
Ray diagramming
Transparent optical devices bounded by a spherical surface
Lense
It also means that the image is smaller than the object
Reduced
Bulge at the middle and thins at the edges
Converging lense(convex lense)
Used to describe an image formed behind the mirror
Virtual
A remarkable optical instrument
The human eye
It is where the image will form
Intersection point
What do you call the ray that is similar to principal axis
Principal ray
Which of the following does not describe the image formed by convex mirror
Enlarged
Which of the following best to describe the image formed by a plane mirror
Virtual,Upright, and same size as the obj.
