About This Product
For an optics lesson from the Physics Miscellaneous Products range, the chosen component is placed on a level bench, the laser is switched on and the beam is aimed at it, so students can watch the ray reflect or bend and relate this to image formation. Supervision is needed throughout because the beam must not reach anyone’s eyes.
