Anjali Kapoor answered |
Concave lenses are used here. They spread the light out before it reaches the convex lens in the eye, therefore letting the image focus directly on the retina. Hyperopia is known to you probably as farsightedness.

Nisha Choudhury answered |
According to ohm's law
Current (I) = Potential difference (V) / Resistance(R)
If the potential difference is maintained constant and the resistance is changed,
Cureent (I) is inversely proportinal to the reisistance (R)
V = IR --(1)
Now, here V is constant.
Let , new resistance R' = 2R and assume that current flow be I'
So, from (1),
IR = I'. R',
=> IR = I'. 2R,
Therefore, I' = I / 2
So,
If the resistance is doubled by applying the constant potential difference the current becomes the half of the previous.

Can you explain the answer of this question below:Electric current always flows
- A:
Either lower to higher or higher to lower
- B:
At same potential
- C:
From lower to higher potential
- D:
From higher to lower potential
The answer is d.
Electric current always flows
Either lower to higher or higher to lower
At same potential
From lower to higher potential
From higher to lower potential

Raksha Chopra answered |
Electrons move from low potential to high potential. The direction of electric current is opposite to the direction of flow of electrons.
Hence Electric current always flows from higher to lower potential.

The near point of the eye is the minimum distance of the object from the eye, which can be seen distinctly without strain. For a normal human eye, this distance is 25 cm. The far point of the eye is the maximum distance to which the eye can see the objects clearly. The far point of the normal human eye is infinity.

Rahul Kapoor answered |
Retina is the inner back portion of eye. Retina is composed of enormous number of light sensitive cells. Lens forms image of the visual world on retina through cornea. Light sensitive cells of retina get activated upon illumination and generate electric signals. Optic nerves send these electric signals to the brain, where these signals finally processed and interpreted to see an object as they are.

d)

|

Krishna Iyer answered |
The magnification produced by a concave mirror is given by the formula:
m = -v/u
where, m = magnification v = image distance u = object distance
From the problem, we have: u = -15 cm (since the object is placed in front of the mirror, the distance is negative) m = -4/2 = -2 (since the image is inverted and 4 cm high whereas the object is 2 cm high)
Substituting these values in the magnification formula, we get:
-2 = -v/(-15)
Simplifying, we get:
v = 30 cm
Therefore, the position of the image is 30 cm from the concave mirror.

Changes in the contraction of the ciliary muscles alter the focal distance of the eye, causing nearer or future images to come into focus on the retina; this process is known as accommodation.
Stars twinkle due to- a)atmospheric refraction
- b)atmospheric reflection
- c)scattering of light
- d)dispersion of light
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?
Stars twinkle due to
a)
atmospheric refraction
b)
atmospheric reflection
c)
scattering of light
d)
dispersion of light
|
Deepika Shah answered |
The twinkling of a star is due to atmospheric refraction of starlight. The starlight, on entering the earth’s atmosphere, undergoes refraction continuously before it reaches the earth. The atmospheric refraction occurs in a medium of gradually changing refractive index. Since the atmosphere bends starlight towards the normal, the apparent position of the star is slightly different from its actual position.

When a wire of 8Ω resistance is bent in the form of a closed circle, resistance of each half (semicircular) part is 8/2 Ω = 4Ω.
As these two parts are connected in parallel across points A and B, hence effective resistance will be 2Ω.

RP = R/4
∴ New power consumed when two halves in parallel
Can you explain the answer of this question below:A person having myopic eyes uses a concave lens of focal length 50 cm. What is the power of the lens?
- A:
+ 0.02 D
- B:
+ 2 D
- C:
– 0.02 D
- D:
– 2 D
The answer is d.

Raghav Bansal answered |
So focal length = - 50 cm = - 0.50 meter
power = - 1/0.50 = -2 Dioptre or - 2 D
power = - 1/0.50 = -2 Dioptre or - 2 D

- b)Upside down
- c)Same direction
- d)Turned to the right
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

The image formed on the retina is Real and Inverted (Upside down) image.But we see all objects virtual and erect this is because the image formed on the retina is carried to the brain as electrical signals by the optical nerves.In the brain the brain flips the image formed so that we can see the image as an erect image.

The phenomena due to which white light splits Into seven colours on passing through a prism is called dispersion. Upon passing through a medium, each of the colors travels at different speeds and hence has different angles of refraction leading to the splitting of the light.
Two devices are connected between two points say A and B in parallel. The physical quantity that will remain the same between the two points is- a)current
- b)voltage
- c)resistance
- d)None of these

In parallel combination voltage remains same across two points.
When white light enters a prism, it gets split into its constituent colours. This is due to- a)different refractive index for different wavelength of each colour
- b)each colours has same velocity in the prism
- c)prism material have high density
- d)Scattering of light

Dispersion takes place because refractive index of the material of prisra is different for different wavelength.
