In this physics tutorial, we will follow a pattern of inquiry for convex mirrors: investigating how convex mirrors reflect light and produce images.

Students learn two rules of reflection as it has to do with convex mirrors. These two rules will greatly simplify the task of determining the image locations for objects placed in front of convex mirrors.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Introduction to function transformations involving horizontal and vertical stretches and reflections.

By thinking about their own expenses, students explore how differentiating between needs and wants can inform daily financial decisions and rules to live by.

In this physics tutorial, students investigate the method for drawing ray diagrams for objects placed at various locations in front of a concave mirror.

An illustrated physics tutorial which explains the spherical aberration, an intrinsic defect with any mirror that takes on the shape of a sphere.

Students explore three different ray diagrams for objects positioned at different locations along the principal axis in a convex mirror.

While a ray diagram may help one determine the approximate location and size of the image, it will not provide numerical information about image distance and image size. To obtain this, students are introduced to the Mirror Equation and...

In this physics tutorial, students explore the phenomenon of the fact that without light, there would be no sight.

A physics tutorial focused on the behavior of light as it relates to concave mirrors.

Students quantify the percent of light reflected from solutions containing varying concentrations of red dye using LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT bricks and light sensors. They begin by analyzing a set of standard solutions with known...

This lesson engages students in learning about light. Studets will describe how light is produced, reflected, refracted, and separated.

This lesson engages students in learning about light through multiple sources. Students will learn how light is produced, reflected, refracted, and separated. Students will communicate their findings through an independent project that...

Understand that the moon shines by reflecting sunlight.

A physics tutorial on designing an auditorium and solving the problem of sound reflection. Illustrated.

This page and the many pages which are indexed to focus on the behaviors of sound which characterize it as a wave. Reflection, refraction, interference, diffraction and more are clearly illustrated and explained.

This animation depicts the path of light to each person's eye. Different people are sighting in different directions; yet each person is sighting at the same image location. In this animation the image location is the intersection point...

This lesson focuses on symmetry including reflectional symmetry, rotational symmetry, and palindromes. It defines each, gives examples, and practice activities.

In this lesson, students examine natural and synthetic fibers. Students explore the photo essay in groups and discuss how the sheep farmer offers an alternative to mass production with a focus on the themes of resiliency and...
