    1. When light comes from air to glass, the refracted ray is bent
    towards the normal. Why?
    2. Light of wavelength 5000 Å in air enters a medium of refractive
    index 1.4. What will be its frequency in the medium?
    3. What is the main use of optical fibres?
    4. How does the focal length of a convex lens change, if
    monochromatic red light is used instead of monochromatic
    blue light?
    5. Two thin lenses of power +5D and -3D are in contact. What is
    the focal length of the combination?
    6. A convex lens of glass of refractive index 𝜇𝐿 is immersed in a
    medium of refractive index 𝜇𝑀 . How will the lens behave when
    𝜇𝐿 < 𝜇𝑀 ?

    light is replaced by violet light?
    8. A converging lens is kept coaxially in contact with a diverging
    lens. Both the lenses being of equal focal lengths. What is the
    focal length and power of the combination?
    9. A ray of light incident on an equilateral glass prism (𝜇𝑔𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑠 =
    √3) moves parallel to the base of the prism, inside it. What is
    the angle of incidence for this ray?
    10. For the same value of angle of incidence, the angles of
    refraction in three media A, B and C are 15°, 25° and 35°
    respectively. In which medium would the velocity of light be
    minimum?

    medium, explain the following giving reasons:
    (i) Is the frequency of reflected and refracted light same as the
    frequency of incident light?
    (ii) Does the decrease in speed imply a reduction in the energy
    carried by light wave?

    coaxially.

    spherical surface of radius of curvature R, which separates the
    two media of refractive indices 𝑛1 and 𝑛2 (𝑛2 > 𝑛1 ). Draw the
    ray diagram and deduce the relation between the object

    for refractive to take place at a convex spherical from denser
    to rarer medium.

    the lens. Find the position, nature and size of the image.
