Q1. A 4.0cm tall object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a convex lens of
focal length 20cm. If the distance of the object from the lens is 30cm, find the position,
nature and size of the image. Also, find its magnification.
Q2. (a) 4.5cm needle is placed 12cm away from a convex mirror of focal length 15cm.
Give the location of the image and the magnification. Describe what happens as the
needle is moved farther from the mirror. (b) What kind of mirror is used in a solar furnace
? Give reason for using this mirror. (c) One half of a convex lens is covered with a black
paper. Will this lens produce a complete image of the object ? Justify your answer.
Q3. (a) When an object is placed at a distance of 60 cm from a convex mirror the
magnification produced is 1/2 . Where should the object be placed to get a magnification
of 1/3 ? (b) A small electric lamp is placed at the focus of a convex lens. What is the
nature of beam of light produced by the lens. Draw a diagram to show this.
Q4. The refractive index of a dense flint glass is 1.65 and for alcohol it is 1.36 with
respect to air. Find the refractive index of dense flint glass with respect to alcohol.
Q5. Draw a ray diagram to show refraction of light through a triangular glass prism and
show angle of incidence and angle of deviation.
Q6. Refractive index of diamond with respect to glass is 1.6 and absolute refractive index
of glass is 1.5. Find (i)absolute refractive index of diamond (ii) Speed of light in diamond.
The speed of light in air is 3x10 m/s.

Q8. A person uses a lens of power -2.0D for correcting his distant vision. For correcting
his near vision he uses a lens of power +1.5D. What is the focal length of the lenses
required to correct this disorder ?
Q9. A beam of light passes from air to a substance X. If angle of incidence is 45 degrees
and angle of refraction is 30 degrees, calculate the refractive index of substance X. Given
sin 30 = ½ ; sin 45 = 1/rot2

Q10.A convex lens forms a real and inverted image of a needle at a distance of 50 cm
from it. Where is the needle placed if the size of the image is equal to the size of the
object ? Calculate the power and focal length of the lens.
Q11. An object is placed at a distance of 60 cm from a convex mirror the magnification
produced is 1/2 . Where should the object be placed to get a magnification of 1/3 ?
