An economical alternative to a traditional mounted optical bench, this versatile Optics System brings hands-on experimentation into any classroom with minimal setup. Components align quickly along a standard metre rule, allowing students to measure object and image distances accurately while investigating magnification, focal length, and image formation. With multiple converging and diverging lenses included, learners can explore key optical principles ranging from basic ray diagrams to virtual images and lens combinations. The LED Object F and translucent screen ensure clear visibility in normal classroom lighting, making the system ideal for both guided experiments and open-ended investigations while supporting practical skills and curriculum-based learning. Ships complete with worksheets.
