This slide will explain about the formula that used in Physic SPM for chapter light and wave. There also have simplest way to memorize the formula in easier and creative way. Hope this slide can help all SPM candidates to strive A+ for examination soon. Thank you and good luck.
8. SIMPLEST FORMULA OF CONCAVE MIRROR
IMAGE
U= Distance of OBJECT from
mirror
Size of image
U>C = Diminished
U=C = Same size
U<C = Magnified
Position of image
U>F = Inverted + Real
U<F = Upright + Virtual
Same size
MagnifiedDiminished

Virtual
Inverted + Real
IF the object
located at the
coloured region,
the image will
follow the
properties given.
9. REFRACTION OF LIGHT
Refraction is the bending of a light ray at the boundary of two medium as
the light ray propagates from a medium to another with difference optical
density.
13. REFRACTION FORMULA
4. Critical Angle
90°
The critical angle is the angle of incident in an optically denser
medium for which the angle of refraction is 90°.
14. TOTAL INTERNAL REFLECTION
Normal
refraction
90° angle of
refraction
Total Internal
Reflection
Only occur when light travel from higher refractive index medium, n1 to lower refractive index
medium, n2. (n1>n2)
