Help your students build real understanding of ray diagrams for image location through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about physics concepts.

Students will answer questions such as "In ray diagrams, what does the focal point represent for a concave lens?", "In a ray diagram for a concave mirror, which ray reflects through the focal point?", and "When using a ray diagram, what is the effect of increasing the object distance from a concave lens?"

What's Inside?

• 30 Multiple Choice questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 True or False questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• 30 Short Answer questions as a separate print ready PDF worksheet
• Includes Answer Key with Explanations for all 90 questions
