Physics Principles
This simulation demonstrates how lenses alter the convergence of light beams using the thin lens formula:
1/v - 1/u = 1/f
Where:
- u = object distance (distance from lens to original convergence point P)
- f = focal length (positive for convex lenses, negative for concave lenses)
- v = image distance (distance from lens to new convergence point)
