The diagrams below show light rays passing through a convex lens.
  • This is because it is travelling along the normal. As we saw in the chapter on refraction, light rays which travel along the normal do not change direction when they change medium.
  • This is because it is travelling along the angle of incidence. As we saw in the chapter on refraction, light rays which travel along the angle of incidence do not change direction when they change medium.
  • This is because it is travelling along the angle of reflection. As we saw in the chapter on refraction, light rays which travel along the angle of reflection do not change direction when they change medium.
