(The second medium slows the light down) Note: The angle of refraction, r, is always the angle between the hefracfed light ray and the normal. Air (less dense) Water (more dense) Angle of refraction (r) Normal 2. Light that moves at an angle from a more dense medium to a less dense medium bends away from the normal. (The second medium speeds the light up) Air (less dense) Water (more dense) Normal Light that moves straight on from one medium to another does not bend. It is not refracted.

Using Lenses io Form Images Textbook pages 190-199 Before You Read Section 5.0 Summary Many common devices, such as eyeglasses and magnifying glasses, have lenses. What are lenses used for? Record your ideas in the lines below. Stofe the Main ideas As you read this section, stop after each paragraph. Put what you have just read into your own words. incoming light rays concave lens refiacted light rays are diverging What is a lens? A lens is a piece of transparent material that is curved so that light rays will refract as they pass through it. The more curved the sides of a lens are, the more a ray of light will refract as it passes through the lens. There are two types of lenses: concave and convex. What is a concave lens? Reading Chec/f 1. What happens to light rays that pass through a concave lens? A concave lens is thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges refracts light rays that pass through it away from the normal. The light rays diverge and do not meet at a focal point. forms images that are upright forms images that are smaller than the object 80 MHR Section 5.3 Using Lenses to Form Images 2006 McGraw-Hill Ryerson Limited
Section ew Summary What is a convex lens? A convex lens is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges. 4 retracts light rays that pass through it toward the normal. The light rays converge at a focal point. The image formed by a convex lens depends on how far the object is from the focal point. The distance from the centre of the lens to the focal point is called the focal length. If an object is between the lens and the focal point (less than one focal length), the image is upright and larger than the object. If an object is more than one focal length away from the lens, the image is upside down and smaller than the object ^ continued OReading Check 2. What is the focal length of a lens? Distance of an object from the convex lens more than two focal lengths between one and two focal lengths directly at the focal point less than one focal length How the image compares with the object upside down and smaller upside down and larger no image forms upright and larger 2006 McGraw-Hili Ryerson Limited Section 5.3 Using Lenses to Form images MHR 81

DATE: NAME: CLASS: Hif'ima. Goal Complete this page to show your understanding of how lenses bend light. What to Do Review pages 191-193 of BC Science 8. Then answer these questions and complete the diagrams. 1. Describe a concave lens. 2. Light rays when passing through a concave lens. 3. Describe a convex lens. 4. Light rays when passing through a convex lens. 5. Sometimes people use the phrase double convex or double concave to describe a lens. They are referring to the shape of each surface. To identify concave and convex lenses, it is the thickness of the glass in the middle compared to the thickness at the edges that counts. Classify the following lenses as convex or concave. 6. Draw die paths of the light through each of the following lenses.
