This diagram shows convection currents. Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids. The heat source lies at the bottom of the diagram. The heat generated by this source causes the air next to it, to warm up. Warm air is lighter than cool air, and hence it rises up. As it rises up, it moves away from the heat source and cools down. As it cools down, it gets heavier and sinks towards the heat source. This cycle continues and causes a convection current.

This diagram shows the phenomena of the transfer of thermal energy. It happens by the convection of hot and cold air. The sun heats up the air, making it warm and less dense. Less dense air tends to go up, cooling down as doing it. Cool air becomes more dense and tends to sink, and wind does the job of making the air travel through different places, warming or cooling as he goes.

The figure shows a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, wave amplitude is the height of each crest above the resting position. The higher the crests are, the greater the amplitude. Another important measure of wave size is wavelength. Wave amplitude is the maximum distance the particles of a medium move from their resting position when a wave passes through. The resting position (dotted line in the middle of the wave) is where the particles would be in the absence of a wave. Wavelength can be measured as the distance between two adjacent crests of a transverse wave. It is usually measured in meters. Wavelength is related to the energy of a wave. Short-wavelength waves have more energy than long-wavelength waves of the same amplitude.

This diagram represents a sound wave and its characteristics. The peak of a wave is called compression or crest. The valley of a wave is called rarefaction or trough. Wave length is the length between two consecutive peaks, i.e. crest or two consecutive valleys, i.e. trough of a wave. Louder sound has shorter wavelength and softer sound has longer wavelength. Magnitude of maximum disturbance on either side of the normal position or mean value in a medium is called amplitude. In other words, amplitude is the distance from normal to the crest or trough. Time required to produce one complete wave is called time period or time taken to complete on oscillation is called the time period of the sound wave. The number of sound waves produced in unit time is called the frequency of sound waves. Frequency is the reciprocal of the time period of wave. Distance covered by sound wave in unit time is called the velocity of sound wave.

The diagram shows different kinds of waves. Visible light is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see. Visible light includes all the colors of the rainbow. Each color is determined by its wavelength. Visible light ranges from violet wavelengths of 400 nanometers (nm) through red at 700 nm. There are parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans cannot see. This radiation exists all around you. You just cant see it! Every star, including our Sun, emits radiation of many wavelengths. Astronomers can learn a lot from studying the details of the spectrum of radiation from a star. Many extremely interesting objects cant be seen with the unaided eye.

This diagram explains the concept of refraction. Light travels at a constant speed in vaccuum but travels at different speends in different media. When light travels from one medium to another, the speed of light changes causing it to appear to bend. This bending of light is called refraction. Refraction occurs when the angle of incidence (i) is not 90 degrees. In this diagram (r) is the angle of refraction. The angle of refraction is dependent on the angle o incidence as well as the speed of light in the medium through which it is travelling. XY is the boundary between the media through which light is travelling. At the point of incidence where the ray strikes the boundary XY, a line can be drawn perpendicular to XY. This line is known as a normal line (labeled NN' in the diagram) .

This diagram shows the setup of an amateur reflecting telescope. The telescope tube sits on a movable mount that allows it to point at and track objects in the sky. The mount shown is equitorial, meaning that it can be aligned to the north star for easier tracking of other stars and planets as they move accross the sky. The mount has a counterweight to help balance the wieght of the telescope tube. The entire assembly sits on the three legs of a tripod. When pointed at the sky, light enters the optical tube through it's aperture. The aperture is the circular end of the tube that allows light to enter when uncovered. Once light has entered the telescope, it is gathered and directed to the eyepiece by mirrors. The lenses in the eyepeice take this light and bring an image to focus for a human to see. The finderscope is a second smaller telescope attached the optical tube. It has lower magnification than the telescope, and this makes finding onjects and pointing the telescope easier.

This diagram explains the law of reflection and shows how light gets reflected from a surface. The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence (i) is always equal to the angle of reflection (r). The angles of both reflected and incident ray are measured relative to the imaginary dotted-line, called normal, that is perpendicular (at right angles) to the mirror (reflective surface). On the other hand, Refraction is caused by the change in speed experienced by a wave when it changes medium. The refracted ray is a ray (drawn perpendicular to the wave fronts) that shows the direction that light travels after it has crossed over the boundary. The angle that the incident ray makes with the normal line is referred to as the angle of incidence. Similarly, the angle that the refracted ray makes with the normal line is referred to as the angle of refraction. Thus, this is what the following diagram is all about.

The diagram below is about two different types of lens. A lens is a transparent piece of glass or plastic with at least one curved surface. A lens works by refraction: it bends light rays as they pass through it so they change direction. In a convex lens (sometimes called a positive lens), the glass (or plastic) surfaces bulge outwards in the center giving the classic lentil-like shape. A convex lens is also called a converging lens because it makes parallel light rays passing through it bend inward and meet (converge) at a spot just beyond the lens known as the focal point Convex lenses are used in things like telescopes and binoculars to bring distant light rays to a focus in your eyes. A concave lens is exactly the opposite with the outer surfaces curving inward, so it makes parallel light rays curve outward or diverge. That's why concave lenses are sometimes called diverging lenses. (One easy way to remember the difference between concave and convex lenses is to think of concave lenses caving inwards). Concave lenses are used in things like TV projectors to make light rays spread out into the distance.

The objective lens is convex, and it causes rays of light entered the telescope parallel to one another to converge. The eyepiece lens is located in the path of these converging rays, and brings an image to focus for the human eye.

This Diagrams shows the different types of lenses. A lens is a clear (transparent) object (like glass, plastic or even a drop of water) that changes the way things look by bending the light that goes through it. They may make things appear larger, smaller, or upside-down. Lenses are classified by the curvature of the two optical surfaces. A lens is biconvex (or double convex, or just convex) if both surfaces are convex. If both surfaces have the same radius of curvature, the lens is equiconvex. A lens with two concave surfaces is biconcave (or just concave). If one of the surfaces is flat, the lens is plano-convex or plano-concave depending on the curvature of the other surface. A lens with one convex and one concave side is convex-concave or meniscus. It is this type of lens that is most commonly used in corrective lenses. If the lens is biconvex or plano-convex, a collimated beam of light passing through the lens converges to a spot (a focus) behind the lens. In this case, the lens is called a positive or converging lens.

This diagram shows the arrangement of optics found in a reflecting telescope. Light enters the optical tube through it's aperture, a circular opening at the forward end of the tube. When light enters the telescope, it encounters a concave reflecting mirror at the back of telescope tube. This large reflecting mirror is called the objective. Light reflected from the objective converges on a small right angle mirror at the center of the optical tube. This mirror reflects the gathered light to the eyepiece. The lenses in the eyepeice take this light and bring an image to focus for a human to see.
