A point source of light is placed at a distance of 2 f from a converging lens of focal length f. The intensity on the other side of the lens is maximum at a distance


A particle executes a simple harmonic motion of amplitude 1.0 cm along the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length 12 cm. The mean position of oscillation is at 20 cm from the lens. Find the amplitude of oscillation of the image of the particle.


A converging lens of focal length 15 cm and a converging mirror of focal length 10 cm are placed 50 cm apart. If a pin of length 2.0 cm is placed 30 cm from the lens farther away from the mirror, where will the final image form and what will be the size of the final image?


A point object is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a convex lens. The image is formed on the other side at a distance of 30 cm from the lens. When a concave lens is placed in contact with the convex lens, the image shifts away further by 30 cm. Calculate the focal lengths of the two lenses.


Define the term 'focal length of a mirror'.

A spherical surface of radius R separates two medium of refractive indices µ1 and µ2, as shown in figure. Where should an object be placed in the medium 1 so that a real image is formed in medium 2 at the same distance?


A ray of light from a denser medium strikes a rarer medium at an angle of incidence i as shown in the figure. Refracted and reflected rays make an angle of 90° with each other. The angle of reflection and refraction are r and r'. The critical angle is ______.

 


Obtain an expression for refraction at a single convex spherical surface, i.e., the relation between μ1 (rarer medium), μ2 (denser medium), object distance u, image distance v and the radius of curvature R.


Assertion: If critical angle of glass-air pair `("μg" = 3/2)` is θ1 and that of water-air pair `("μw" = 4/3)` is θ2, then the critical angle for the water-glass pair will lie between θ1 and θ2.

Reason: A medium is optically denser if its refractive index is greater.
