    Optical Path and Fermat’s Principle.

    Mirror and Fermat’s principle: We can see ourselves in the mirror and take our mirror reflected selfie as a consequence of Fermat’s Principle, the topic of discussion of the blog. … Snell’s Law governs refraction which is adjustment of optical paths in in-homogeneous media because light can no more travel at its speed in free-space.…

  • My Teaching Philosophy.

    Teaching is therefore while creative, satisfying and attractive in many respects and suitably rewarding one must be devoted in as many angles as it requires to be successful and responsible keeping the motto of teaching in glaring memory: teaching produces tomorrow’s citizens, the spearheads and pioneers of tomorrow’s world is the just product of today’s…

  • A Question a Day (series) Q3

    The equation v = a*del_t is sometimes used to find velocity when acceleration and time are known. Another form of this equation is v = v_0 + a*del_t. In this second form of the equation, the function of the term v_0 is to: A. indicate that the equation is valid only for an object that…
