Chapter 9,10

This document contains questions from chapters 9 and 10 of the F.SC Part 1 curriculum. It includes 7 multiple choice questions testing concepts like the origins of the wave theory of light, properties of light, characteristics of lenses and telescopes. It also includes short answer questions asking about the differences between polarized and unpolarized light, advantages of polarized sunglasses, increasing orders of spectra using a diffraction grating, how light signals are transmitted through optical fibers, differences between linear and angular magnification, and advantages of using blue light with a compound microscope. Finally, it includes two longer questions asking to discuss the Young's double slit experiment and determine positions of dark and bright fringes, and to calculate the focal length of lenses in a telescope given
