    1. The document provides 10 problems involving optics concepts like spherical mirrors, focal length, magnification, and the formation of real and virtual images. The problems ask the learner to calculate image locations, focal lengths, magnifications and other properties based on given information about an object's position relative to a concave or convex mirror. 2. Specific questions calculate the position of a screen to obtain a sharp image of a candle from a concave mirror, determine the location and magnification of a needle's image in a convex mirror, and find the radius of curvature of a concave mirror that produces a real image with 4x magnification. 3. Information provided includes object and mirror sizes, distances, focal lengths and whether images appear on

    OPTICS

    Worksheet 1

    1. A small candle, 2.5 cm in size is placed at 27 cm in front of a concave mirror


    of radius of curvature 36 cm. At what distance from the mirror should a
    screen be placed in order to obtain a sharp image? Describe the nature and
    size of the image. If the candle is moved closer to the mirror, how would the
    screen have to be moved?
    2. A 4.5 cm needle is placed 12 cm away from a convex mirror of focal length
    15 cm. Give the location of the image and the magnification. Describe what
    happens as the needle is moved farther from the mirror.
    3. a) Calculate the distance of an object of height h from a concave mirror of
    radius of curvature 20 cm, so as to obtain a real image of magnification 2.
    Find the location of image also.
    4. A concave mirror has a focal length of 20 cm and an object is placed at a
    distance of 16 cm from it. Find the position and nature of the image formed
    by it. What will be the position and nature of the image, if the concave
    mirror is replaced by a convex mirror of the same focal length?
    5. What is the angle of incidence when a ray of light falls on the spherical
    mirror from its centre of curvature?
    6. An object is at a distance of 10 cm from a spherical mirror and the image of
    the object is at a distance of 30 cm from the mirror on the same side as the
    object. Is the mirror concave or convex? What is its focal length?
    7. An object is placed 15 cm from a convex mirror of curvature 90 cm.
    Calculate the image position and the magnification.
    8. An object is placed in front of the convex mirror 20 cm radius of curvature.
    Its image is formed 8 cm behind the mirror. Find the distance of the object
    from the mirror.
    9. An object placed 12 cm from the pole of a concave mirror produces a real
    image magnified four times. Find the radius of curvature of the mirror.
    10. An object is placed at a distance of 40 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal
    length 20 cm. Determine the ratio of the size of the image and the size of
    object
