Question
Can virtual image be formed on the retina in a seeing process?
✓
Answer
The retina acts as a screen; only real images can be obtained on the screen. In case of people having eye defects, the spectacles form the virtual image of the object and the eye lens form the real and inverted image on the retina.

A simple pendulum of length 40cm is taken inside a deep mine. Assume for the time being that the mine is 1600km deep. Calculate the time period of the pendulum there. Radius of the earth = 6400km.
The two rails of a railway track, insulated from each other and from the ground, are connected to a millivoltmeter. What will be the reading of the millivoltmeter when a train travels on the track at a speed of 180km/h-1? The vertical component of earth's magnetic field is 0.2 × 10-4 T and the rails are separated by 1m.
If an object far away from a convex mirror moves towards the mirror, the image also moves. Does it move faster, slower or at the same speed as compared to the object?

A test charge q is made to move in the electric field of a point charge Q along two different closed paths Fig. First path has sections along and perpendicular to lines of electric field. Second path is a rectangular loop of the same area as the first loop. How does the work done compare in the two cases?
