Key Takeaways: Light, spanning 400nm to 700nm, is vital for vision, traveling at 3 X 10^8 m/s. Optics studies light-matter interactions, including reflection and refraction. Reflection follows the law of equal angles, while refraction obeys Snell’s Law. Total Internal Reflection occurs beyond a critical angle, reflecting light entirely. Understanding light and optics has broad applications […]
Key Takeaways Total Internal Reflection (TIR) is a physics phenomenon where light transitions from a denser to a less dense medium, causing it to reflect back into the denser medium at a specific angle called the critical angle. This occurs when the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle, resulting in total internal reflection rather […]
Key Takeaways: Flow cytometry is a method for studying cells using fluorescent tagging and optical analysis as they flow past a laser. Improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is essential in flow cytometry for reducing background noise and enhancing relevant cell signals, achieved through optimizing optical components. Laser performance directly affects SNR, with stable output power […]
Key Takeaways: Spherical mirrors come in two types – concave and convex, with distinct curvatures that affect how light rays behave. Understanding terms like center of curvature, pole, and focal length is crucial for grasping the behavior of spherical mirrors. The mirror equation simplifies how images are formed, making it easier to understand and apply […]
