-
Use the lens equation to deduce algebraically the following :
"An object placed within the focus of a convex lens produces a virtual and enlarged image"

-
The image of a candle is formed by a convex lens on a screen. The lower half of the lens is painted black to make it completely opaque. Draw the ray diagram to show the image formation. How will this image be different from the one obtained when the lens is not painted black?
-
Write the drawbacks of Nicol prism.
-
-
Write the conditions for nature of objects and images.
-
The total magnification produced by · a compound microscope is 20. The magnification produced by the eye piece is 5. The microscope is focussed on a certain object. The distance between the objective and eyepiece is observed to be 14 cm. Ifleast distance of distinct vision is 20 cm, calculate the focal length of the objective and the eye piece.
-
Explain about compound microscope and obtain the equation for magnification.
-
Discuss about simple microscope and obtain the equations for magnification for near point focusing and normal focusing.
-
A double convex lens made of glass of refractive index 1.5 has both radii of curvature 20 cm each. Find the focal length of the lens. If an object is placed at a distance of 15 em from this lens, find the position of the image formed.
-
A Parallel beam of light of 500 nm falls on a narrow slit and be resulting diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 1 m away. It is observed that the first minimum is at a distance of 2.5 mm from the centre of the screen. Calculate the width of the slit.
-
If a particle is thrown horizontally at a speed of 3 x 108 ms-1, deduce the vertical fall in traveling 1 km distance. Given : g = 10 ms-2 Does that result depend upon the mass of the particle? Comment on your result, considering that Newton thought light is made up of cor,puscles that at a very large speed by the source.
-
Prove laws of reflection using Huygens' principle.
-
-
An object is placed in front of a concave mirror of focal length 20 cm. The image formed is three times the size of the object. Calculate two possible distances of the object from the mirror.
-
Describe the Fizeau's method to determine speed of light.
