The Nature of Light
But, as we will learn (later), light can also be characterized as discrete packets of energy called photons.
Also, as we will learn (later), light travels in vacuum at the same speed:
and it is the universal speed limitfor all physical processes.

Propagation of Light:Waves and Wave Fronts
Water waves (2D)
Propagating waves are usually visualized as a sequence of expanding wave fronts in space.
Wave front: the locus of points where the wave has the same phasic relation, e.g. crests, troughs.

Waves, Wave Fronts, and Rays
When wave fronts are planar (source is sufficiently far away), rays are perpendicular to the wave fronts and parallel to each other.
Rays are always perpendicular to the wave fronts.
A ray indicates the direction of travel of the wave.

The Study of Light: Optics Geometric (or Rays) Optics:
In most daily situations, light (rays) travel in a straight line in a uniform medium.
At the boundary between two materials (air & glass), a ray’s direction might change.
Wave characteristics of light are not important.
Geometric Optics is the study of the propagation of light with the assumption that rays are straight lines in a fixed direction through an uniform medium.

Total Internal Reflection Light moves from a medium with a larger n to one with a smaller n.
As the angle of incidence becomes more and more acute, the light ceases to be transmitted, only reflected.

n is usually a property of the medium but equally important, it also varies with the frequency f of light dispersion.
n typically increases with increasing f.
