A 5cm tall object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a convex lens of focal length 18cm at a distance of 12cm from it. Use lens formula to determine the position, size and nature to the image formed.
It is desired to obtain an erect image of an object, using concave mirror of focal length of 12cm.
Will the image be smaller or larger than the object? Draw ray diagram to show the formation of image in this case.
Write the formula for a lens connecting image distance (υ), object distance (u) and the focal length (f). How does the lens formula differ from the mirror formula?
“A ray of light incident on a rectangular glass slab immersed in any medium emerges parallel to itself.” Draw labeled ray diagram to justify this statement.
‘‘A concave mirror of focal length 15cm can form a magnified erect as well as inverted image of an object placed in front of it.’’ Justify this statement stating the position of the object with respect to the pole of the mirror in both cases for obtaining the images.
The speed of light in water is $2.25 \times 10^8 m / s$. If the speed of light in vacuum be $3 \times 10^8 m / s$, calculate the refractive index of water.
