    ANSWER THE FOLLOWING CONCEPTUAL QUESTIONS

    1 What are the properties of the image formed by plane mirror?

    One half of a convex lens is covered with a black paper.

    2 (a) Show the formation of image of an object placed at 2F1, of such covered lens with the
    help of ray diagram. Mention the position and nature of image.
    (b) Draw the ray diagram for same object at same position in front of the same lens, but
    now uncovered. Will there be any difference in the image obtained in the two cases?
    Give reason for your answer.

    3 Draw a ray diagram to show refraction of light through a glass slab and label on it the
    following:
    (i)Incident ray
    (ii)Refracted ray
    (iii)Emergent ray
    (iv)Lateral shift (displacement)

    4 If the image formed by mirror for all positions of the object placed in front of it is always
    virtual and diminished, state the type of the mirror. Draw a ray diagram in support of
    your answer. Where are such mirrors commonly used and why?

    5 With the help of ray diagrams, show the formation of images of an object by a concave
    mirror. When it is placed
    (i) beyond the center of curvature (ii) at the center of curvature.

    6 Draw ray diagrams to show the formation of image by an object by a concave lens when
    the object is placed
    (i) at infinity (ii) between infinity and optical Centre of the lens.

    7 What is meant by the power of a lens? What is its SI unit? Name the type of lens whose
    power is positive. The image of an object formed by a lens is real, inverted and of the
    same size as the object. If the image is at a distance of 40cm from the lens, what is the
    nature and power of the lens? Draw ray diagram to justify your answer

    8 A student has three concave mirrors A, B and C of focal lengths 20 cm, 15 cm and 10 cm
    respectively. For each concave mirror he performs the experiment of image formation for
    three values of object distance of 30 cm, 10 cm and 20 cm.
    Giving reason answer the following:
    (a) For the three object distances, identify the mirror which will form an image equal in
    size to that of object. Find at least one value of object distance.
    (b) Out of the three mirrors, identify the mirror which would be preferred to be used for
    shaving purpose.
    (c) For the mirror B, draw ray diagram for image formation for any two given values of
    object distance.
    9 Why does a light ray incident on a rectangular glass slab immersed in any medium
    emerge parallel to itself? Explain using a diagram.

    10 Why do we prefer a convex mirror as a rear- view mirror in vehicles?

    11 a) Which mirror is used by dentists?


    b) What are the advantages and disadvantages of using convex mirror for seeing traffic at
    the rear?

    12 Define the term absolute refractive index of a medium.

    13 The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. What is the meaning of this statement?

    14 Name the type of mirror used in following situations


    a. Headlights of the car
    b. Side/rear view mirror of a vehicle
    c. Solar furnace

    15 A spherical mirror produces an image of magnification -1 on a screen placed at a distance


    of 50 cm from the mirror.
    (a) Write the type of mirror.
    (b) Find the distance of the image from the object.
    (c) What is the focal length of the mirror?
    (d) Draw the ray diagram to show the image formation in this case.
