Explain ray diagrams.
Open in App
Solution
A ray diagram shows how light
travels, including what happens when it reaches a surface. In a ray diagram,
you draw each ray as:
a straight line with an arrowhead pointing in
the direction that the light travels.
A ray diagram is a diagram that traces
the path that light takes in order for a person to view a point on the image of
an object. On the diagram, rays (lines with arrows) are drawn for the incident ray and the reflected ray.
