CHAPTER LIGHT REFLACTION & REFRACTION
SCIENCE CLASS 10TH CHAPTER-LIGHT REFLECTION AND REFRACTION FORMULA & IMPORTANT POINTS
Science Formulas
Laws of Reflection
- Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. (∠i = ∠r).
- The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal at the point o incidence, all lie in the same plane.
IMAGE FORMATION BY A CONCAVE MIRROR FOR DIFFERENCT POSITION OF THE OBJECT
Position of the object | Position of the image | Size of the image | Nature of the image |
At infinity | At the focus F | Highly diminished, point sized | Real and inverted |
Beyond the centre of curvature C | Between F and C | Diminished | Real and inverted |
At C | At C | Same size | Real and inverted |
Between C and F | Beyond C | Enlarged | Real and inverted |
At F | At infinity | Infinitely large or highly enlarged | Real and inverted |
Between the pole P of the mirror and focus F | Behind the mirror | Enlarged | Virtual and erect |
IMAGE FORMATION BY A CONVEX MIRROR
Position of the object | Position of the image | Size of the image | Nature of the image |
At infinity | At the focus F, behind the mirror | Highly diminished point-sized | Virtual and erect |
Between infinity and the pole P of the mirror | Between P and F, behind the mirror | Diminished | Virtual and erect |

Mirror Formula:
Magnification:
The ratio of the size of the image to that of the object is called magnification. For a mirror, magnification (m) is given by.
m = -v/u
Lens formula:
Laws of reflection
- Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. (i = r).
- The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane.
- Magnification: m= v/u
