IIT JEE AIEEE Ray Optics Study Material - Course Material

There are several ways to think about light in physics. One very useful way is to think of it in terms of rays. That is, to imagine light to be traveling in very narrow beams. When you do that, we say that you are modeling light as rays. This method allows one to develop an understanding of several light phenomena including common reflections and refractions.

The unique difference between Ray and Wave optics is that Ray theory does not describe phenomena such as interference and diffraction, which require wave theory (involving the phase of the wave).

We call an image where the rays of light radiating from a point on the object actually converge to a physical point in space, a real image.When the rays from an object point never actually converge toward a different physical point in space but simply appear to the eye as if they were radiating from an image point, we call the image avirtual image.

Ray Optics differentiates itself to Wave optics in various ways  and askiitians study material provides  students with IIT JEE study material of Physics under Optics category focusing Ray optics in this section. IIT JEE entrance exam and other like exams require solutions to past year papers under  Ray optics category of Physics.
