C9 — Light: Reflection and Refraction
Light Reflection and Refraction is Chapter 9 of CBSE Class 10 Science — one of the most important Physics chapters in the syllabus and a chapter that consistently carries heavy marks in the board exam. Mirrors, lenses, ray diagrams, mirror formula, lens formula, magnification — this chapter requires both conceptual clarity and numerical problem-solving ability. This Texcellency book on Light Reflection and Refraction builds both skills in CBSE Class 10 students through simple explanations, logical examples, and step-by-step numerical methods.
What this CBSE Class 10 Light Reflection and Refraction book covers: Laws of reflection — explained simply with clear diagrams in words. Plane mirrors, concave mirrors, and convex mirrors — differences, uses, and image formation explained logically. Ray diagrams for mirrors — how to draw them correctly for every object position. Mirror formula and magnification — how to use them without confusion. Refraction of light — why it happens, explained with the bent straw analogy and more. Refractive index — what it means, how to calculate it. Convex lenses and concave lenses — image formation explained for every case. Lens formula and magnification for lenses — step-by-step numerical solving. Power of a lens — the concept and formula made simple.
Why this book is essential for CBSE Class 10 Physics: Light is one of those chapters where students either love Physics or lose confidence in it completely. Texcellency makes every concept click — from understanding why a spoon looks bent in water to solving complex mirror formula numericals correctly in the board exam.
Based on the latest CBSE 2026-27 syllabus. Also available as part of the complete CBSE Class 10 Science Books Bundle — all 13 chapters at just ₹999.
=====================
Is your daughter or son:
- Struggling to grasp the concepts of light reflection and refraction?
- Confused by laws of reflection and image properties?
- Frustrated with understanding spherical mirrors and lens fundamentals?
- Struggling to comprehend refraction through glass slabs and lenses?
- Having trouble mastering sign conventions and lens power?
Is their current science textbook:
- Leaving them bewildered with abstract concepts and terminology?
- Failing to provide clear illustrations of light behavior?
- Lacking practical examples and real-life applications?
If yes, then be sure that lower grades of your children are not their fault. It does not mean that they are slow learners or less efficient in their studies, it simply means that the tools they have been given are not good enough. The textbooks they have been using are not friendly enough.
