An equiconvex lens, with redii of curvature of magnitude `10 cm` each, is put over a liquid layer poured on top of a plane mirror. `A` small needle, with its tip on the principal axis of the lens, is moved along the axis until its inverted real image coincides with the needle itself. The distance of the needle, from the lens, is measured to be `15 cm` .
On removing the liquid layer, and repeating the experiment the distance is measured to be `10 cm` . Given that the two values of the distance measured represent the force length values in the two cases, calculate the refractive index of the liqiud.

A small candle 2.5 cm in size is placed 27 cm in front of a concave mirror of radius of curvature 36 cm. At what distance from the mirror should a scr

(a) Using the relation, `(1)/(u)+(1)/(v)=(1)/(f)` `(1)/(v)=(1)/(f)-(1)/(u)=(1)/(-18)=(1)/((-27))` v=-54cm The negative sign shows that the image is formed in front of the mirror, i.e., on the side of the object itself. Thus,...

Two thin equiconvex lenses each of focal length 0.2 m are placed coaxially with their optic centres 0.5m apart. Then find the focal length of the comb

Given, total length of each lens,`f_(1)=f_(2)=0.2m` Seperation between the lenses,d=0.5 m `therefore` Focal length of the combination, `1/F=1/(f_(1))+1/(f_(2))-d/(f_(1)f_(2))=1/0.2+1/0.2-0.5/((0.2)(0.2))=-2.5` `rArrF=-1/2.5=-0.4m`

The radii of curvature of the two surfaces of a lens are 20 cm and 30 cm and the refractive index of the material of the lens is 1.5. If the lens is c

Correct Answer - D (d) The focal length of the lens, `1/f=(mu-1)(1/R_(1)-1/R_(2))` `1/f=(1.5-1)(1/20-1/30)rArr1/f=0.5((30-20)/600)` `or1/f=1/2xx10/600=1/120` or The focal length, f = 120 cm

The power of a biconvex lens is 10 dioptre and the radius of curvature of each surface is 10 cm. Then the refractive index of the material of the lens

Correct Answer - A (a) Power of a biconvex lens is 10 D. Radius of curvature of each surface = 10 cm. `rArr1/R_(f)=(mu-1)[1/R_(1)-1/R_(2)] ` `rArr10=(mu-1)[100/10-(-100/10)]` `rArr10=(mu-1)[20]` `rArr(mu-1)=1/2` `rArr` Refractive index of...

A convex lens of focal length 15 cm is placed on a plane mirror. An object is placed at 30 cm from the lens. The image is

Correct Answer - C `(1)/(F)=(1)/(f_(1))+(1)/(f_(m))+ (1)/(f_(1))=(2)/(f_(1))+(1)/(oo)rArrF=(15)/(2)" cm "` `(2)/(15)=(1)/(30)+(1)/(v),v=10" cm "`. `therefore` image is real, 10 cm in front of mirror.
