Url: https://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/refrn/U14L6a.cfm
Creator: Henderson, Tom
Publisher: Physics Classroom
Description: Created by Tom Henderson of the Physics Classroom, this item is devoted to the physics of sight, the author explores how the human eye is able to refract light to produce a focused image. Included are explanations of how the cornea acts as a double convex lens and how the brain converts nerve impulses from incoming light to inverted images on the retina. The inclusion of lens and magnification calculations focuses the material specifically for the physics teacher or learner. This page is part of a larger online collection.
