PHYSICS ASSIGNMENT CHAPTER – 10
LIGHT (REFLECTION)
1. If an object is placed at 10 cm in from of a plane mirror,
how far would it be from its image. 2. An object is placed at 10 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 20 cm. (a) Draw a ray diagram for the formation of image. (b) Calculate the image distance. (c) State two characteristics of the image formed. 3. At what distance from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm should an object 2 cm long be placed in order to get an erect image 6 cm tall ? 4. When an object is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a concave mirror, its image is formed at 10 cm in front of the mirror. Calculate the focal length of the mirror. 5. An object 3 cm high is placed at a distance of 8 cm from a concave mirror which produces a virtual image 4.5 cm high (i) What is the focal length of the mirror ? (ii) What is the position of image ? (iii) Draw a ray-diagram to show the formation of image. 6. A converging mirror forms a real image of height 4 cm of an object of height 1 cm placed 20 cm away from the mirror : (i) Calculate the image distance. (ii) What is the focal length of the mirror? BY : SHALINI BHATNAGAR (7042470180) 7. An object of size 7.0 cm is placed at 27 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 18 cm. At what distance from the mirror should a screen be placed so that a sharp focussed image can be obtained ? Find the size and nature of image. 8. An object 3 cm high is placed at a distance of 10 cm in front of a converging mirror of focal length 20 cm. Find the position, nature and size of the image formed. 9. A concave mirror has a focal length of 4 cm and an object 2 cm tall is placed 9 cm away from it. Find the nature, position and size of the image formed. 10. A dentist’s mirror has a radius of curvature of 3 cm. How far must it be placed from a small dental cavity to give a virtual image of the cavity that is magnified five times? 11. A large concave mirror has a radius of curvature of 1.5 m. A person stands 10 m in front of the mirror. Where is the person’s image ? 12. An object of 5.0 cm size is placed at 20.0 cm from a converging mirror of focal length 15.0 cm. At what distance from the mirror should a screen be placed to get the sharp image ? Also calculate the size of the image. 13. A concave mirror produces three times enlarged virtual image of an object placed at 10 cm in front of it. Calculate the radius of curvature of the mirror. 14. When an object is placed at a distance of 50 cm from a concave spherical mirror, the magnification BY : SHALINI BHATNAGAR (7042470180) produced is -1/2. Where should the object be placed to get a magnification of -1/5. 15. How far should an object be placed from the pole of a converging mirror of focal length 20 cm to form a real image of the size exactly. 16. (a) An object is placed just outside the principal focus of concave mirror. Draw a ray diagram to show how the image is formed, and describe its size, position and nature. (b) If the object is moved further away from the mirror, what changes are there in the position and size of the image ? (c) An object is 24 cm away from a concave mirror and its image is 16 cm from the mirror. Find the focal length and radius of curvature of the mirror, and the magnification of the image. 17. When an object is placed 20 cm from a concave mirror, a real image magnified three times is formed. Find : (a) the focal length of the mirror. (b) Where must the object be placed to give a virtual image three times the height of the object?
