Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 1

Light rays from a point object

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 1

Light from each point on a luminous object travels outward in all directions in straight lines. Light travels at very high speeds, but is not instantaneously everywhere. Light from a point object travels indefinitely until it collides with matter in its path to be partially absorbed and reflected.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 2

The graph drawn with object distance along abscissa & image as ordinate for a convex lens is

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 2

In a convex lens,  (1/v)−(1/u)=(1/f)​
Or (1/v)​−(1/f)​=(1/u)​ where u is always negative and f is always positive.
(1/v)​=(1/f)​−(1/u)​
So, as u is increased 1/u will decrease and  (1/f)​−(1/u)​  will increase, so, 1/v​ increases or v decreases.
So, its graph will be a hyperbola

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 8

Magnifying power of a compound microscope is high if

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 8

Magnifying power of a compound- microscope is given by m=− (l​D​/f0​fe​)
where, l is length of tube
D is least distance of clear vision
f0​ is focal length of objective
fe​ is focal length of eyepiece
So, clearly, it can be seen that focal length of objective and eyepiece needs to be decreased so that magnifying power increases.
 

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 9

According to Cartesian sign convention the heights measured

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 10

The bluish color predominates in a clear sky,

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 10

The molecules of air and other fine particles in the atmosphere have a size smaller than the wavelength of visible light. These particles are more effective in scattering light of a shorter wavelength at the blue end than the light of the longer wavelengths at the red end. The red light has a wavelength 1.8  times greater than blue light. Thus, when sunlight passes through the atmosphere, the fine particles in the air scatter the blue color more strongly than red color. The scattered blue light enters our eyes and we see the blue color of the clear sky.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 11

The magnifying power of the telescope can be increased by

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 11

Magnifying power of a telescope is f0/fe​ ​​, so as  1/​​fe increases, magnifying power increases.
Hence the correct answer is option D.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 12

A lamp and a screen are set up 100 cm apart and a convex lens is placed between them. The two positions of the lens forming real images on the screen are 40 cm apart. What is the focal length of the lens ?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 12

L1L2=40cm and O I=100cm
Therefore, x+40+x=100 or x=30cm
For lens at L1, we have
U=-30cm and v=+70
Thus,
(1/v)-(1/u)=1/f
Or, 1/f=(1/70) - (1/-30)
Or, f=+21cm

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 16

The largest telescope in the world has a reflector with an aperture of 200 inches in order to achieve

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 17

A convex lens forms a real image of an object on a screen; the magnification of the image being 3/2. The object and the screen are kept fixed and the lens is moved through a distance of 16 cm when a sharp image is again formed on the screen; the magnification now being 2/3. What is the focal length of the lens?

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 17

3/2=v/u…...1
2/3=(v-16)/(u+16)......2
from these equation
we get v=48, u=32
so now f=(vxu)/(v+u)=96/5=19.2
The correct answer is option B.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 18

A plano-convex lens, when silvered on the plane side, behaves like a concave mirror of focal length 30 cm. When it is silvered on the convex side, it behaves like a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm. The refractive index of the material of the lens is

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 18

3. 1.5

Solution: Let the radius of curvature of the convex surface of the plano-convex lens be RRR. The focal length of a concave mirror is related to the radius of curvature by f=R2f = \frac{R}{2}f=2R​.

  1. When the plane side is silvered, the system behaves as a concave mirror with focal length 30 cm. The effective focal length fefff_{\text{eff}}feff​ of this system can be found using the mirror formula and lens formula combined, but given the scenario, we focus on this system.

  2. When the convex side is silvered, the system behaves like a concave mirror with focal length 10 cm.

By using the relations for combined focal length and refractive index of the plano-convex lens, and applying these boundary conditions, the refractive index nnn of the material of the lens is determined to be 1.5.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 20

Farsighted or hypermetropic eye can be corrected by

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 20

Hypermetropia is corrected using converging lens.  In this defect the person is able to see far objects clearly but difficulty with near vision. The image is focused behind the retina rather than upon it. This occurs when eyeball is too short or the power of lens is too weak. By using a convex lens the defect is corrected.

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 21

A Plano convex lens of curvature of 30 cm & R.I. 1.5, produces a real image of an object kept 90cm from it. The magnification is

Detailed Solution for Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 21

We have, (1/v)−(1/−90)=1/f⇒(1.5−1)(1/30)=1/60
∴ v=180 cm
∴|m|=∣v/u∣=180/90=2.0

Test: Ray Optics & Optical Instruments - 1 - Question 22
