Overview         (For age - group : Below 16 )

The animation deals with the following aspects of Lenses : 1. Classification of lenses ? 2.What is the nature of the image formed by lenses? 3. Complete ray diagram This animated physics (optics) topic gives in-depth information about lenses and is very useful for schools and industry.

Details of the animation/ movie /software

A lens is defined as a piece of transparent, optical material having one or two spherical surfaces (whose central axes coincide).

A lens can have one spherical surface and one plane surface or it can have two spherical surfaces.
When the surface is spherical, then it has some finite radius of curvature which can be measured. However if one surface is plane, its radius is considered to be infinite.

Lenses are divided in two categories:
Converging lens or convex lens
Diverging lens or concave lens.

Each of the above category can have multiple types associated with it. Convex lenses can be of subtype as plano convex or concavo convex, or double convex lens similarly concave lenses can be of plano concave or convexo concave.

A convex lens: a piece of transparent, optical material, having one or two spherical surfaces such that it is thicker in the middle and tapering at the edges .

All of the above are thicker in the middle and tapering at their edges.

The analytical relation between the object distance, the image distance and the focal length is given by
1/f=1/do + 1/di ; where do is the object distance and di is the image distance.

Also explained in the animation are common terms like

  • Principal axis,
  • radius of curvature,
  • optical center,
  • focus ,
  • focal length.

A detailed description of how to construct a ray diagram for both types of lenses is shown, another area that is definitely confusing to beginners and is clearly explained through animation is why refraction is only taken to occur once for the ray traveling through the lens while in reality the ray undergoes medium change twice in the lens ?


Explained in more detail in the section of very popular "explanatory notes" are the key concepts about

  • Power of a lens
  • Formation of image with respect to lens type
  • Magnification formula
  • Sign convention
