Principles of Physics II
Focal length is the distance from the center of a lens or mirror to its focal point, where parallel rays of light converge or appear to diverge. This distance is crucial in determining how an optical system focuses light and forms images. The focal length can greatly influence magnification, image size, and the overall behavior of optical instruments, affecting how we perceive images through lenses and mirrors.
congrats on reading the definition of Focal Length. now let's actually learn it.
