Q-1: An object is placed at a distance of I0 cm from a convex mirror of focal length 15 cm. Find the
position and nature of the image.
Q-2: 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 he
obtained? Find the size and the nature of the image.
Q-3: If an object of height 4 cm is placed at distance of 12 cm from a concave mirror having focal length
24 cm, find the position, nature and the height of the image.
Q-4: An object of height 6 cm is placed at a distance of 10 cm from a convex mirror with radius of
curvature 30 cm.Find the position, nature and the height of its image.
Q-5: An object of 5 cm height is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a concave mirror.Find the position,
height and nature of its image.The focal length of the mirror is 10 cm.
Q-7: A concave mirror of focal length 20cm is placed 50 cm from a wall. How far from the wall an object
be placed to form its real image on the wall?
Q-8: An object is placed at a distance of 40cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15cm. If the object
is displaced through a distance of 20 cm towards the mirror, By how much distance is the image
displaced?
Q-9: An object is placed at distance of 25 cm from a spherical mirror and its image is formed behind the
mirror at distance of 5 cm. Find focal length? Is it concave or convex mirror?
Q-10: An object is kept in front of a concave mirror of focal length of 15 cm. the image formed is 3 times
the size of the object. Calculate the two possible distances of the object from the mirror.
Q-11: A 6 cm object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length 15 cm.
The distance of the object from the lens is 10 cm. Find the position, size and nature of the image formed,
using the lens formula.
Q-12: One half of a convex lens of focal length 10 cm is covered with a black paper. Can such a lens
produce an image of a complete object placed at a distance of 30 cm from the lens? Draw a ray diagram
to justify your answer.
Q-13: An object is placed at infinity from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm. Find the position and
nature of image formed. Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of image. (Not to scale)
Q-14: a) One – half of a convex lens of focal length 110 cm is covered with a black paper. Can such a
lens produce an image of a complete object placed at a distance of 30 cm from the lens? Draw a ray
diagram to justify your answer.
b) A 4 cm tall object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length 20 cm.
The distance of the object from the lens is 15 cm. Find the nature, position and size of the image. [4]
Q-15: A converging lens has a focal length of 250 mm. Calculate its power and express it according to
sign convention.
