Optics terms are the words used to describe how light behaves and interacts with different materials. Some common optics terms include reflection, refraction, and dispersion. Reflection is when light bounces off a surface, like a mirror. Refraction is when light bends as it passes through different materials, like water or glass. Dispersion is when white light is separated into its different colors, like when you see a rainbow. Understanding these optics terms can help us better understand how light works in our everyday lives.

quick facts
Optics is the study of light and how it interacts with different materials.
A magnifying glass uses lenses to make objects appear larger than they really are.
When light passes through a prism, it can be split into different colors, creating a rainbow effect.
Optical illusions are tricks that our eyes play on our brains, making us see things that aren’t really there.
Telescopes use mirrors or lenses to collect and focus light from distant objects in space, allowing us to see them more clearly.
