271.

In a concave mirror, an object is placed at a distance  d1  from  the focus  and  the image is formed  at  a distance d2 from the focus. Then the focal length of the mirror is

  • d1 d2

  • d1 d2 

  • (d1 + d2 )/ 2

  • d1d2


272.

A short linear object, of length l, lies along  the  axis  of  a  concave  mirror, of focal length f, at a distance d from the pole of the mirror. The  size  of  the  image  is  then (nearly)  

  • - l fd - f

  • d - fl f

  • l f2d - f2

  • d - f2f2 l

Assertion:  A  total  reflecting  prism  is  used  to erect  the  inverted  image  without deviation. 

Reason:  Rays  of  light  incident  parallel  to  base  of  prism  emerge  out  as  parallel rays.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false.


A.

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

     

Beam  of  light  incident  on face  AB,  suffers  refraction from air to glass and strikes the face  AC  suffering  total  internal  reflection.  The  beam  now  strikes  the  face  BC  of  the prism  at  an  angle  of  incidence  less  than  the  critical  angle  hence  it  suffers  refraction  from  glass  to  air  and  bends  away  from  the  normal. The  beam  emerges out  parallel  to  the  base.  As  a  result  of  refraction, on emergence  the  rays  are   inverted.

Assertion: The  edges  of  the  images  of  white  object  formed  by  a  concave  mirror  on  the  screen  appear white. 

Reason:  Concave  mirror  does  not  suffer  chromatic aberration.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

A coverging lens forms a real image I of an object on its principal axis. A rectangular slab of refractive index and thickness  x  is introduced between  l  and the lens, I will move

  • towards the lens ( μ - 1 ) x

  • towards the lens by 1 - 1μ x

  • away from the lens by (μ - 1 ) x

  • away from the lens by 1 - 1μ x


276.

When white light passes through a prism, the deviation is maximum for

  • violet light

  • green light

  • red light

  • yellow light


277.

An object 5 cm tall is placed 1 m from a concave spherical mirror which has a radius of curvature of 20 cm. The size of the image is

  • 0.11 cm

  • 0.50 cm

  • 0.55 cm

  • 0.60 cm


278.

The magnifying power of a compound microscope increase with

  • the focal length of objective lens is increased and that of eye lens is decreased

  • the focal length of eye lens is increased and that of objective lens is decreased

  • focal lengths of both objects and eye-piece are increased

  • focal lengths of both object and eye-piece

A thread is tied slightly loose to a wire frame as in figure and the frame is dropped into a soap solution and taken out. The frame is completely covered with the film. When the portion A is punctured with a pin, the thread

 

  • become concave towards A

  • become convex toward A

  • either (a)  or  (b) depending on the size of A with respect to B

  • remains in the initial position

Reason: Red glass transmits only red light.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

  • If assertion is true but reason is false

  • If both assertion and reason are false
