Top Known Scientist in Heat and Thermodynamics Field

James Prescott Joule (1818 – 1889)
•He was an English physicist and brewer, born in Salford, Lancashire.
•He received his early education at home
•He studied for sometime under John Dalton
•Joule studied the nature of heat, and discovered its relationship to mechanical work .
•His first major research was concerned with determining the quantity of heat produced by an electric current and, in 1840, Joule discovered a simple law connecting the current and resistance with the heat generated.

Mirror and Lens Problems

Glossary of Mirror and Lenses

Plane Mirror
A plane mirror is a mirror with a planar reflective surface. For light rays striking a plane mirror, the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.It always form virtual image

Concave or Converging Mirrors
A curved mirror that has its center farther away from you than its edges is called a concave mirror. A concave mirror tends to reflect parallel rays through a point called its focus – in other words a concave mirror converges light. Therefore concave mirrors are often referred to as converging mirrors. This converging effect makes sense if you imagine a concave mirror to be an array of small plane mirrors.You can demonstrate the converging of parallel light rays by a concave mirror quite dramatically for yourself. A relatively small concave mirror placed in the sun will gather enough light to ignite a small piece of paper quite quickly

Convex or Diverging Mirrors
