In an experiment for determination of refractive index of glass of a prism by i− δ, plot, it was found that a ray incident at angle 35o, suffers a deviation of 408 and that it emerges at angle 79o ⋅ Ιn that case which of the following is closest to the maximum possible value of the refractive index?
1.5

Assuming human pupil to have a radius of 0.25 cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25 cm, the minimum separation between two objects that human eye can resolve at 500 nm wavelength is:
1 μm
30 μm
100 μm
100 μm
On a hot summer night, the refractive index of air is smallest near the ground and increases with height from the ground. When a light beam is directed horizontally, the Huygens’ principle leads us to conclude that as it travels, the light beam:
goes horizontally without any deflection
bends downwards
bends upwards
bends upwards
Monochromatic light is incident on a glass prism of angle A. If the refractive index of the material oft the prism is μ, a ray incident at an angle θ, on the face AB would get transmitted through the face AC of the prism provided
A.
The Ray will get transmitted through face AC if iAC < iC
Consider the ray diagram is shown below θ.
A ray of light incident on face AB at angle
r1 = Angle of refraction on face AB
r2 = Angle of incidence at face AC
For transmission of light through face AC
iAC < iC or A-ri < iC
or Sin (A-r1)1)< 1/μ
Now, applying snell's law at the face AB
1 x sin θ = μ sin r1 or sinr1 = sinθ/μ
A thin convex lens made from crown glass has focal length f. When it is measured in two different liquids having refractive indices 4/3 and 5/3, it has the focal lengths f1 and f2 respectively. The correct
f1 = f2 <f
f1 >f and f2 becomes negative
f2 >f and f1 becomes negative
f2 >f and f1 becomes negative
The diameter of the plano-convex lens is 6 cm and thickness at the centre is 3 mm. If speed of light in material of lens is 2 × 108 m/s, the focal length of the lens is

A circular loop of radius 0.3 cm lies parallel to a much bigger circular loop of radius 20 cm. The centre of the small loop is on the axis of the bigger loop. The distance between their centres is 15 cm. If a current of 2.0 A flows through the smaller loop, then the flux linked with bigger loop is
