Index of Refraction
In general, the speed of light in any material is less that its speed
in vacuum.
Index of refraction of a medium is defined in terms of the
speed of light in this medium

seeing objects
In order to be seen, an
object must send light from each
of its points in many directions.
The eye collects some of the light
emitted from a point allowing the
brain to interpret the location of
the point.
In some situations diverging rays are interpreted as
originating from a single point creating an image of a point.
plane mirror
If the rays are emitted from a point (real object) or converge to a
point (virtual object), after they are reflected by the mirror, the
rays or their extensions meet at a point to form an image.

or their extensions meet approximately at a point to form an image.

and the index of refraction of the surrounding medium

Image
The magnification is defined as the ratio of the image height to the
object height.
If the orientation of the image is the same as that of the object, a
positive value is assigned to the magnification.
For an inverted image the magnification is negative.
angular magnification
example: magnifying glass
N
The angular magnification
(magnifying power) of an
instrument is defined as the
ratio of the "angular size" of
the final image and the
"angular size" of the
observed object.

The system of two close lenses behaves like a single lens with a
focusing power equal to the sum of the focusing powers of each lens
separately.
compound microscope
The objective produces the first
(real) image almost at the focal
point of the ocular.
The eye piece form the final
(virtual) image between the near
and the far point of the observer’s
eye.
