Proficiencies addressed:

30. Demonstrate an understanding of ray optics in both lenses and mirrors including; (CCCS #5.7)

a. the qualitative determination of the position of real and virtual images through ray diagrams.

b. the quantitative prediction of the position and magnification of real and virtual images.

c. determining the focal lengths of mirrors and lenses [through the lens maker's formula].

31. Demonstrate an understanding of the conflicting evidence [Michelson-Morley Interferometer, Photoelectric Effect and Blackbody Radiation] regarding light, its interaction with the environment and the resulting wave-particle duality theory.
