2. If a light beam refracts through two mediums which following parameters will be changed?
a) wavelength b) frequency c) speed d) amplitude e) intensity
3. Drawing a picture of wave pattern describe the basic difference of bright red and dim red light.
5. Say you are observing the image of an extended object in a plane mirror. Suddenly, the mirror breaks into several
portions due to an external thrust. What will be the effect in its image?
15. A ray of light travelling inside a rectangular glass block of refractive index √ 2 is incident on the glass-air surface
at an angle of incidence of 45. The refractive index of air is one. Under these conditions the ray
c) will be absorbed
d) will emerge into the air with an angle of refraction equal to 90
16. White light is incident on the interface of glass and air as shown in the fig. If green light is just totally internally
reflected, then the emerging ray in air contains
17. An electromagnetic radiation of frequency n, wavelength λ travelling with velocity v in air, enters a glass slab of
refractive index μ. What will be the frequency, wavelength and velocity of light in the glass slab?
18. A perfectly reflecting mirror has an area of 1 cm 2. Light energy is allowed to fall on it for one hour at the rate of
10 W/cm2.Calculate the force that acts on the mirror.
19. A ray of light travelling in water is incident on its surface open to air. The angle of incidence is θ , which is less
than the critical angle. Then there will be
c) a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be less than 180° −2θ
d) a reflected ray and a refracted ray and the angle between them would be greater than 180° −2θ
20. A 2.0-m-tall person is standing 2.0 m from a flat vertical mirror staring at her image. What minimum height
must the mirror have if the person is to see her entire body, from the top of her head to her feet?
21. When you look at yourself in a 60 cm tall plane mirror, you see the same amount or your body whether you are
close to the mirror or far away. (Try it and See.) Use ray diagrams to show why this should be true.
22. A light beam is travelling from Region I to region IV. The refractive index in Region I, II, III and IV are
μ0 μ0 μ0
μ0 , , and respectively. Find the angle of incidence θ for which the beam just misses entering region IV.
