Pre-Lab

As you saw in class, convex and concave lenses behave in different ways.  In our new formal lab, you will determine exactly how this happens.

Prior to this, research this question - what exactly is a focal point, and how is it different for a convex lens vs. a concave lens.

In the lab, you will be moving an object (candle) and seeing how images form (if indeed they do) - are they larger/smaller/same, real/virtual (look this up, too), upside-down or right-side up.
