a lens, Both the laws of refraction of light, Optical Center.
Calculate the speed of light in a medium if its absolute refractive
2 2
index is 3. (Take c= 3 X 108 m/s)
A convex lens has a focal length of 10cm. At what distance from
the lens should the object be placed so that it forms a real and
inverted image 20 cm away from the lens? What would be the
3 size of the image formed if the object is 2 cm high? With the help 5
of a ray diagram show the formation of the image by the lens in
this case?

One student uses a lens of focal length 50 cm and another of -50

cm . State the nature and find the power of each lens. Which of
4 3
the two lenses will always give a virtual and diminished image
irrespective of the position of the object?
Following questions consist of two statements – Assertion (A)
and Reason (R). Answer these questions selecting the appropriate
option given below:
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of
A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Assertion(A) : Light travels faster in glass than in air.
5 2
Reason (R) : Glass is denser than air.
Assertion(A) : A ray of light travelling from a rarer medium to a
denser medium slows down and bends towards the normal.
When it travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium, it
6 2
speeds up and bends away from the normal.
Reason (R) : The speed of light is higher in a rarer medium than
a denser medium.
Calculate the focal length of a spherical lens which is thicker at
the sides and thinner at the center. The image is formed at 5 cm
7 away from the lens and is of half the size than that of the object. 6
Also calculate the power of the lens. Draw the ray diagram to
support your answer.
