By the end of this learning object, the student will be able to: Identify the concept and laws of light reflection.13536

This video is about why words flip left & right (aka horizontally) in a mirror but not up & down (aka vertically). The answer has to do with specular reflection, mirrors being like windows into another world (alternate...

In this video, the concept of infinity mirrors is explored. The video explains how mirrors work by reflecting light and how placing two mirrors parallel to each other creates a reflection of a reflection, leading to an infinite...

In this video, you will see how you can use reflective surfaces to redirect a light beam to wherever you need to if you place the mirrors correctly. Can you use what you learned to guide a light beam through a maze and around obstacles...

This nugget explains spherical mirror and its types and uses. It talks about concave and convex mirrors, types of images, and image formation by concave and convex mirror.

This is a lecture video that explains how ray diagrams can be used to describe the reflection of a wave from a surface. The video begins by demonstrating how to draw an incident ray and a normal on a surface, and how to use the law of...

When light hits something, a number of things can happen: it can be reflected, refracted, diffracted or absorbed. But what does this mean? Physics - Waves - Learning Points. Manipulation of light is vital to our survival. Light waves...

Could you avoid being hit by a laser if you were in a room of mirrors?

When you live in the ocean, it can be hard to find ways to keep hidden from predators, or from your own prey. But these three animals have found clever ways to stay hidden, by using light to their advantage. One of them even /makes...

In 2021, we launched a space telescope that's 100 times more powerful than Hubble, called the James Webb Space Telescope. How does the JWST work? What makes it so powerful? And what might it see?
