A. Assertion-Reason Question
Question (a-e), Two statements are given, one labelled Assertion(A)and the other
labelled Reason(R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes(i),
(ii),(iii), and (iv) as given below:
(i) Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A.
(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A.
(iii) A is true, but R is false.
(iv) A is false, but R is true.
a) Assertion(A). Focal length of a spherical mirror depends on radius of curvature of
themirror.
Reason(R): Distances of object and image from the spherical mirror determine focal
length of the mirror.
b) Assertion(A): Mirror formula can be applied to a plane mirror.
Reason (R): A plane mirror is a spherical mirror of infinite focal length.
c) Assertion(A): The height of an object is always considered positive.
Reason (R): An object is always placed above the principal axis in this upward
direction.
d) Assertion(A): Power of a lens of focal length 1.5m is 0.67D.
Reason (R): P=1/f
e) Assertion (A): A concave lens cannot act as a magnifier.
Reason (R): For any position of the object, image formed by a concave lens is virtual,
erect and smaller in size.

B. Multiple choice Questions-

1. While looking at the diagram, Nalini concluded the following:
(I) the image of the object will be a virtual one. (II) the reflected ray will travel along the
same path as the incident ray but in opposite direction. (III) the image of the object will be
inverted. (IV) this is a concave mirror and hence the focal length will be negative. Which one
of the above statements are correct?

C. (II), (III) and (IV)
D. (I), (II), (III) and (IV)
