LIGHT BOX AND OPTICAL SET [Eisco]: Complete set

LIGHT BOX AND OPTICAL SET [Eisco]: Complete set

•  This Light Box And Optical Set (Eisco) is virtually identical to IEC type (cat. IEC0237 ) with all accessories interchangeable with it.
•  Useful for experiments involving reflection, refraction and colour mixing.
•  The light box has a 12-volt 20-watts quartz iodide lamp also with vertical side channels allowing slit plates and colour filters to fit into them.
•  In addition to that, when used with accessories it can produce convergent, divergent and parallel light beams.
•  Similarly, lateral apertures are available using the adjustable hinged mirrors on the side of the Light Box.
•  Contents includes:
-  Set of 8x acrylic prism blocks
-  A single 25 x 75 mm mirror (with plastic stand to hold it vertically)
-  2x stainless steel mirrors (1x half-round & 1x parabolic)
-  A comprehensive instruction manual is supplied.

(Wikipedia excerpt: ..."...Optics is the branch of physics that studies the behaviour and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it.[1] Optics usually describes the behaviour of visible, ultraviolet, and infrared light. Light is a type of electromagnetic radiation, and other forms of electromagnetic radiation such as X-rays, microwaves, and radio waves exhibit similar properties.[1]

Most optical phenomena can be accounted for by using the classical electromagnetic description of light, however complete electromagnetic descriptions of light are often difficult to apply in practice. Practical optics is usually done using simplified models. The most common of these, geometric optics, treats light as a collection of rays that travel in straight lines and bend when they pass through or reflect from surfaces....")
