Important Questions on Refraction at Spherical Surfaces and by Lenses
A converging lens of focal length 20 cm and diameter 5 cm is cut along the line AB. The part of the lens shown shaded in the diagram is now used to form an image of a point P placed 30 cm away from it on the line XY. Which is perpendicular to the plane of the lens. The image of P will be formed.
A spherical thick shell made of transparent material is cut along its chord as shown. The smaller part will
When the object is at distances u1 and u2 the images formed by the same lens are real and virtual respectively and of the same size. Then focal length of the lens is
A beam of diameter 'd' is incident on a glass hemisphere as shown. If the radius of curvature of the hemisphere is very large in comparison to d, then the diameter of the beam at the base of the hemisphere will be
A beam of diameter is incident on a glass hemisphere as shown. If the radius of curvature of the hemisphere is very large in comparison to , then the diameter of the beam at the base of the hemisphere will be
A concave spherical surface of radius of curvature 10 cm separates two medium x & y 0f refractive index 4/3 & 3/2 respectively. If the object is placed along principal axis in medium X then
A ray is incident on a glass sphere as shown. The opposite surface of the sphere is partially silvered. If the net deviation of the ray transmitted at the partially silvered surface is 1/3rd of the net deviation suffered by the ray reflected at the partially silvered surface (after emerging out of the sphere). Find the refractive index of the sphere.
A thin convex lens forms a real image of a certain object 'p' times its size. The size of real image becomes 'q' times that of object when the lens is moved nearer to the object by a distance 'a' find focal length of the lens?
