Optics Concept Map

This document discusses key concepts in light and optics including focal length, focal point, lens equations, ray model of light, diffraction grating, spectrum, refraction, reflection, wave model of light, wave anatomy, interference, and standing waves. It provides definitions and equations for important optical principles like Snell's law, lens equations, and relationships between wavelength, frequency, and speed of light. The bottom credits Becky McCoy as authoring a light and optics unit plan.
