Finding difficulties in memorizing things? Let's learn it in some easy ways.
1
Finding it difficult to remember formula of relative refractive index ? Here is an easy way to memorise it.
The path of refracted light in a denser medium can be visualised as a car moving from a smooth rode to a rough surface. This is an analogy which is stated as Fermat's principle:"light travels between two points along the path that requires the least time, as compared to other nearby paths."

This is a much easier way to remember the formula of refraction at a spherical interface:
Here,
R.M. is the refracting medium, which contains the refracted ray.
I.M. is the incident medium, which contains the incident ray.

The magnification formula can be easily memorised using I AM triangle.

We can memorise the magnifying power of a simple microscope using this mnemonic:
5
For compound microscope, the magnifying power can be memorised as
6
For telescope, the magnifying power can be memorised as
