  1. Q. 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.

    SOLUTION

    Here,

    object height h = 4 cm

    object dis tance u = -12 cm

    focal length f = -24 cm

    Putting these values in mirror formula,

    (1/u) + (1/v) = (1/f)

    ∴ (-1/12) + (1/v) = (-1/24)

    ∴ (1/v) = (1/12) - (1/24)

    ∴ (1/v) = (1/24)

    ∴ v = 24

    Now, magnification m = (-u/v) = (-24)/(-12) = 2

    ∴ (h'/h) = 2

    ∴ h' = 2h = 2 x 4 = 8 cm

    Since v is positive, the image is formed behind the mirror at the distance of 24 cm from the mirror.It is virtual and has height of 8 cm.

  2. Q. 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.

    SOLUTION

    Here,
    Object distance u = -10 cm
    Radius of curvature R = 30 cm
    Object height h = 6 cm



    Now,

    focal length f = (R/2) = 30/2 = +15

    Using mirror formula,

    (1/u) + (1/v) = (1/f)

    ∴ (1/v) = (1/f) - (1/u)

    ∴ (1/v) = (1/15) - (1/-10)

    ∴ (1/v) = (1/15) + (1/10) =(1/6)

    ∴ v = 6 cm

    Also, magnification m = -(u/v) = -(6/-10) = 0.6

    ∴ (h'/h) = 0.6

    ∴ h' = mh =0.6 x 6 = 3.6 cm

    Thus, the image is formed behind the mirror(as v is positive), it is virtual and its height is 3.6 cm.

  3. Q. At what distance the object should be placed so that the image will be formed at a distance 10 cm from a concave lens ? Focal length of the lens is 20 cm.

    SOLUTION

    Since the lens is concave, the image will be formed on the same side as that of the object.

    Here,

    Image distance v = -10 cm

    Focal length f = -20 cm

    Object distance u = ?

    Using lens formula,

    (1/f) = (1/v) - (1/u)

    ∴ (1/u) = (1/v) - (1/f)

    ∴ (1/u) = (1/-10) - (1/-20)

    ∴ (1/u) = (-2 + 1)/20

    ∴ (1/u) = -(1/20)

    ∴ u = -20 cm

    Thus the object should be placed 20 cm from the concave lens on the left side of the lens.

  4. Q.A ray of light enters from water to glass.Refractive index of glass with respect to water is 1.12. Find absolute refractive index of water if absolute refractive index of glass is 1.5.

    SOLUTION

    Taking water as "medium1" and glass as "medium2",

    Absolute refractive index of water, η1 = ?

    Absolute refractive index of glass, η2 = 1.5

    η21 = 1.12_________(given)

    ∴ η2/η1 = 1.12

    ∴ η1 =η2/1.12

    ∴ η1 = (1.5)/(1.12) = 1.34

    Hence,absolute refractive index of water = 1.34
