simultaneous combination of lenses and mirrors (with images)

[sen-h]

Dear Mr. Fu-Kwun Hwang,

I´m totaly impressed and speachless about you website! Thank you for broaden my mind!

In the last 5 years I often wished to have simulations for certain things I was thinking about or trying to explain my sweet little daughter, and today I accidentially found your side. Wow! Thank you so much for this wonderful collection of great simulationens, even of things I never thought to be shown in such simulations.

While playing with some optic simulations I could not find one that allows me to combine lenses and mirror effects at the same time. I found one simulation under
http://ephysics.physics.ucla.edu/physlets/1.1/elensesandmirrorslarge.html
(which is quite what I looked for), but it would be much more comfortable if it would be able to vizualize objects similar to your "Images formed with a flat mirror " or even better "Image formed by plane mirror". Maybe I missed to find such a simulation on your side, or there is no one?

It would be really great if you could help me in this issue.

The optical bench simulation you found was created by a US professor (Wolfgang Christian) who is a friend of mine.

You can find the same simulation here: Physlet Optical bench

You might want to check out Thin Lens combinations. However, it only include two lens.

I did not create simulation as complicated as Physlet Optical bench because Wolfgang already did a great job. You should be able to do what you want with  Physlet Optical bench. You can add more than one lens/mirrors and include different light sources to show the light paths.

Let me know if you still need more help!

Thanks for your reply! How small the world is.... 

I´m fine with that simulation, I think I can yuse it to explain what I need....
Have a great time!
