Light Reflection and Refraction Case Study Questions and answers

At Case Study Questions there will given a Paragraph. In where some Important Questions will made on that respective Case Based Study. There will various types of marks will given 1 marks, 2 marks, 3 marks, 4 marks.

Case study:1

We can see when the pencil immersed in water it appears like bent at the water air interface. Also, the letters appears to be raised when we will see that letters through a glass slab placed over it. If the media used are different that means the bending of light is different in different media. And hence we can say that the light does not travel along a straight line path through different media. According to the velocity of light in that medium the bending of light takes place. Thus, we can say the phenomenon in which light ray bends or changes its direction when traveling from one medium to other is called as refraction of light. And also we can observed that if the ray of light is traveling from rarer medium to denser medium it bends towards the normal whereas when the ray of light travels from denser medium to rarer medium it bends away from the normal. And the extent of bending of light in a particular medium depends on the refractive index of the medium mostly. More the refractive index more is the bending or denser is the medium and less will be the velocity of light in that medium.

If less is the refractive index then less will be the bending or medium is rarer and velocity of light will be more in that medium. Like the refractive index of air is found to be 1.0003 and that of water is found to be 1.33. And hence water is more denser than air, air is rarer medium as compared to water. Thus, velocity of light in air medium is greater than velocity of light in water medium.

The absolute refractive index of the medium is given by

Absolute Refractive index= (speed of light in air)/(speed of light in medium) = c/v

Thus, for different media refractive index is different and accordingly the velocity of light is also different.

1) If the refractive indices of glass and ice are 1.52 and 1.31 respectively. Then in which medium the velocity of light is more? What it’s value?

( Velocity of light in air= 3*108 m/s)

2) How you can define rarer and denser medium on the basis of optical density?

3) If the Refractive index of diamond is found to be highest i.e. 2.42 then what it indicates?

4) What will happen if we took a glass filled with kerosene instead of water? What would be the observations?

Case study: 2

We have, the object distance is the distance of the object from the pole of the mirror. And we always know that object is placed in front of mirror that means on left side and hence object distance u is always taken as negative. The distance of the image from the pole of the mirror is taken as image distance. The image distance may be positive or negative on the basis of nature of image formed. And the distance of principal focus from the pole is called as focal length of the mirror. Thus, the relationship between the object distance u, image distance v and focal length f is given by mirror formula.

Mirror formula:

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

And magnification in case of mirror gives the extent to which the image is magnified as compared to object size.  Magnification is given by the ratio of height of image (h’) to the height of object (h).

Thus, magnification = (height of image)/(height of object)

Thus, m = h’/h

Also, in terms of object distance and image distance magnification is given by,

Magnification m = h’/h = -v/u

As we know that, image height is positive if the image formed is virtual while height of image is negative for real images.

Similarly in case of lenses, lens formula is given by

1/v – 1/u = 1/f

And magnification in case of lenses is given by

Magnification m = h’/h = v/u

The power of lens depends on the focal length of the lens and it is the ability of the lens to diverge or converge the number of rays incident on it. Also, power of lens is defined as the reciprocal of focal length of the lens.

Thus, P = 1/f

Questions :

1) If the focal length of the lens is measured in meter what will be the unit of power of lens?

2) What is the sign of power of convex and concave lens?

3) If the lenses placed in contact of powers P1, P2, P3, P4 are used then what is the net power of lens system?

4) If the magnification produced is negative and positive in case of mirrors then what about the nature of images formed there?

1) If the focal length of the lens is used in meter then the power of the lens is measured in dioptre or D or m-1.

2) As the focal length of convex lens is positive and hence the power of convex lens is positive.

Also, as the focal length of concave lens is negative and hence the power of concave lens is negative.

3) If in a lens system four lenses of power P1, P2, P3 and P4 are in contact then net power of lens system is the algebraic sum of given power of lenses.

P= P1 + P2 + P3 + P4

4) If the magnification produced is negative then the image formed is real. And if the magnification produced is positive then the image formed is virtual.

Case study:3

As we know that, in case of concave mirrors when a ray of light parallel to principal axis strikes the mirror and after reflection it passes through principal focus of the concave mirror. Also, a ray which is passing through the principal focus of the concave mirror after reflection goes parallel to the principal axis. And the ray of light which is passing through the centre of curvature of concave mirror after reflection retraces the same path in backward direction. Because of converging property of concave mirrors they are used in solar furnaces to concentrate more light to produce huge amount of heat energy. They are also used in search lights, torches, head lights of vehicles so that a strong parallel beam of light will be produced. Also, in case of shaving mirrors concave mirrors are used to see larger face of the person.

While convex mirrors are used as rear view mirror in vehicles to see the traffic behind the person for safe driving. As these mirrors are curved outwards they has wider field of view. In convex mirrors the image formed is always diminished, virtual and erect.

In concave mirror, when the object is at infinity the image formed will be at focus F and which is highly diminished, point sized, real and inverted.

1) In case of concave mirror when the image formed is virtual and erect?

2) In which case the image formed is of same size as the object in case of concave mirrors?

3) Which mirrors are called as converging and diverging mirror?

4) The focal length of concave mirror is______ and the focal length of convex mirror is _______.

1) In case of concave mirrors, when the object is placed between pole P and focus F of the mirror then the image formed is behind the mirror which is enlarged, virtual and erect.

2) When the object is placed at centre of curvature C of the mirror then image formed is also at centre of curvature C which is of same size, real and inverted.

3) Concave mirror is called as converging mirror while convex mirror is called as diverging mirror.

4) The focal length of concave mirror is positive and the focal length of convex mirror is negative.

Case/Passage – 2

Light travels through a vacuum at a speed c = 3 × 108 m/s. It can also travel through many materials, such as air, water and glass. Atoms in the material absorb, reemit and scatter the  light, however. Therefore, light travels through the material at a speed that is less than c, the actual speed depending on the nature of the material. To describe the extent to which  the speed of light in a material medium differs from that in a vacuum, we use a parameter called the index of refraction (or refractive index).

Question: Figure shows a ray of light as it travels from medium A to

in the figure. The refractive index of medium B relative to A will be  (a) greater than unity (b) less than unity (c) equal to unity (d) zero

Question: You are given water, mustard oil, glycerine and kerosene.  In which of these media, a ray of light incident obliquely at same angle would bend the most? (a) Kerosene (b) Water (c) Mustard oil (d) Glycerine   

Question: A ray of light is incident in medium 1 on a surface that separates medium 1 from medium 2. Let v1 and v2 represent the velocity of light in medium 1 and medium 2 respectively. Also let n12 and n21 represent the refractive index of medium 1 with respect to medium 2 and refractive index of medium 2 with respect to medium 1, respectively. If i and r denote the angle of incidence and angle of refraction, then- (a) sin i/sin r = n 21 V 1 /V 2 (b) sin i/sin r = n 21 V 2 /V 1 (c) sin i/sin r = n 12 V 1 /V 2 (d) sin i/sin r = n 12  V 2 /V 1   

Case/Passage – 3 Inside a substance such as glass or water, light travels more slowly than it does in a vacuum. If c denotes the speed of light in a vacuum and v denotes its speed through some other substance, then v = c/n where n is a constant called the index of refraction. To good approximation, a substance’s index of refraction does not depend on the wavelength of light. For instance, when red and blue light waves enter water, they both slow down by about the same amount. More precise measurements, however, reveal that n varies with wavelength. Table presents some indices of refraction of Custon glass, for different wavelengths of visible light. A nanometer (nm) is 10– 9  meters. In a vacuum, light travels as c = 3.0 × 10 8  m/s

Question: Which of the following phenomena happens because n varies with wavelength (a) A lens focuses light (b) A prism breaks sunlight into different colors (c) Total internal reflections ensures that light travels down a fiber optic cable (d) Light rays entering a pond change direction at the pond’s surface 

Question: For blue-green of wavelength 520 nm, the index of refraction of Custon glass is probably closest to (a) 1.49 (b) 1.50 (c) 1.51 (d) 1.52

Case Study Chapter 10 Light Reflection and Refraction

Here, we have provided case-based/passage-based questions for Class 10 Science  Chapter 10 Light Reflection and Refraction

Case Study/Passage-Based Questions

Question 1:

The spherical mirror forms different types of images when the object is placed at different locations. When the image is formed on the screen, the image is real and when the image does not form on-screen, the image is virtual. When the two reflected rays meet actually, the image is real and when they appear to meet, the image is virtual. A concave mirror always forms a real and inverted image for different positions of the object. But if the object is placed between the focus and pole, the image formed is virtual and erect. A convex mirror always forms a virtual, erect, and diminished image. A concave mirror is used as a doctor’s head mirror to focus light on body parts like eyes, ears, nose, etc., to be examined because it can form erect and magnified images of the object. The convex mirror is used as a rear view mirror in automobiles because it can form a small and erect image of an object.

(i) When an object is placed at the center of curvature of a concave mirror, the image formed is

Answer: (c) same size as that of the object

(ii) No matter how far you stand from a mirror, your image appears erect. The mirror is likely to be

Answer: (d): The image is erect in a plane mirror and also in a convex mirror, for all positions of the object.

(iii) A child is standing in front of a magic mirror. She finds the image of her head bigger, the middle portion of her body of the same size and that of the legs smaller. The following is the order of combinations for the magic mirror from the top.

Answer: (c) : As the image of head is bigger, the upper portion of magic mirror is concave. The middle portion of the image is of same size, so, middle portion of magic mirror is plane. Now, the image of legs looks smaller, therefore, the lower portion of magic mirror is convex.

(iv) To get an image larger than the object, one can use (a) convex mirror but not a concave mirror (b) a concave mirror but not a convex mirror (c) either a convex mirror or a concave mirror (d) a plane mirror.

Answer: (b) a concave mirror but not a convex mirror

(v) A convex mirror has wider field of view because (a) the image formed is much smaller than the object and large number of images can be seen (b) the image formed is much closer to the mirror (c) both (a) and (b) (d) none of these.

Answer: (c) both (a) and (b)

Question 2:

The lenses form different types of images when objects are placed at different locations. When a ray is incident parallel to the principal axis, then after refraction, it passes through the focus or appears to come from the focus.

When a ray goes through the optical center of the lens, it passes without any deviation. If the object is placed between the focus and the optical center of the convex lens, an erect and magnified image is formed.

As the object is brought closer to the convex lens from infinity to focus, the image moves away from the convex lens from focus to infinity. Also, the size of the image goes on increasing and the image is always real and inverted.

A concave lens always gives a virtual, erect, and diminished image irrespective of the position of the object.

(i) The location of image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at infinity is (a) at focus (b) at 2F (c) at optical center (d) between Fand 2F

Answer: (a) at focus

(ii) When the object is placed at the focus of concave lens, the image formed is (a) real and smaller (b) virtual and inverted (c) virtual and smaller (d) real and erect

Answer: (b) virtual and inverted

(iii) The size of image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at the focus of convex lens is (a) small (b) point in size (c) highly magnified (d) same as that of object

Answer: (c) highly magnified

(iv) When the object is placed at 2F in front of convex lens, the location of image is (a) at F (b) at 2 F on the other side (c) at infinity (d) between F and optical center

Answer: (b) at 2 F on the other side

(v) At which location of object in front of concave lens, the image between focus and optical centre is formed (a) anywhere between centre and infinity (b) at F (c) at 2F (d) infinity

Answer: (a) anywhere between centre and infinity

The curved surface of a spoon can be considered as a spherical mirror. A highly smooth polished surface is called mirror. The mirror whose reflecting surface is curved inwards or outwards is called a spherical mirror. Inner part works as a concave mirror and the outer bulging part acts as a convex mirror. The center of the reflecting surface of a mirror is called pole and the radius of the sphere of which the mirror is formed is called radius of curvature. (i) When a concave mirror is held towards the sun and its sharp image is formed on a piece of carbon paper for some time, a hole is burnt in the carbon paper. What is the name given to the distance between the mirror and carbon paper?

(ii) The distance between pole and focal point of a spherical mirror is equal to the distance between

(iii) The focal length of a mirror is 15 cm. The radius of curvature is

(iv) The normal at any point on the mirror passes through

(v) In a convex spherical mirror, reflection of light takes place at

The spherical mirror forms different types of images when the object is placed at different locations. When the image is formed on screen, the image is real and when the image does not form on screen, the image is virtual. When the two reflected rays meet actually, the image is real and when they appear to meet, the image is virtual. A concave mirror always forms a real and inverted image for different positions of the object. But if the object is placed between the focus and pole, the image formed is virtual and erect. A convex mirror always forms a virtual, erect and diminished image. A concave mirror is used as doctor's head mirror to focus light on body parts like eyes, ears, nose etc., to be examined because it can form erect and magnified image of the object. The convex mirror is used as a rear view mirrors in automobiles because it can form an small and erect image of an object. (i) When an object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror, the image formed is

(ii) No matter how far you stand from a mirror, your image appears erect. The mirror is likely to be

(iii) A child is standing in front of a magic mirror. She finds the image of her head bigger, the middle portion of her body of the same size and that of the legs smaller. The following is the order of combinations for the magic mirror from the top.

(iv) To get an image larger than the object, one can use (a) convex mirror but not a concave mirror (b) a concave mirror but not a convex mirror (c) either a convex mirror or a concave mirror (d) a plane mirror. (v) A convex mirror has wider field of view because (a) the image formed is much smaller than the object and large number of images can be seen (b) the image formed is much closer to the mirror (c) both (a) and (b) (d) none of these.

The relation between distance of an object from the mirror (u), distance of image from the mirror (v) and the focal length (F) is called mirror formula. This formula is valid in all situations for all spherical mirrors for all positions of the object. The size of image formed by a spherical mirror depends on the position of the object from the mirror. The image formed by a spherical mirror can be bigger than the object, equal to the object or smaller than the object. The size of the image relative to the object is given by the linear magnification (m). Thus, the magnification is given by the ratio of height of image to the height of object. If magnification is negative, image is real and if it is positive, image is virtual. (i) What is the position of an image when an object is placed at a distance of 20 em from a concave mirror of focal length 20 cm?

(i) (d) : When an object is placed at the focus of a concave mirror, the..image is formed at infinity. (ii) (d) : When a light ray parallel to the principal axis is incident on a concave mirror, it passes through the principal focus after reflection. Therefore, figure D is correct. (iii) (a) : If m is negative, the image will be real and inverted. (iv) (d) (v) (b): The distance of object from mirror =  \(\infty\) Using,  \(\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\) \(\frac{1}{\infty}-\left(-\frac{1}{7.5}\right)=\frac{1}{f}\) f = 7.5 cm

(i) (a): When, a ray of light travels from air to glass, it bends towards the normal. (ii) (c): No bending of light occurs when light is incident normally or perpendicularly on a boundary of two media since angle of incidence and angle of refraction both are zero. (iii) (c): When light goes from one medium to other medium, its frequency does not change (iv) (a): The speed to light increases when light passes from glass to water as water is optically rarer medium. (v) (a): The bottom of a pool of water appears to be less deep than it actually is due to refraction.

Light Reflection and Refraction Case Study Questions With Answers

Here, we have provided case-based/passage-based questions for Class 10 Science  Chapter 10 Light Reflection and Refraction

Case Study/Passage-Based Questions

Question 1:

The spherical mirror forms different types of images when the object is placed at different locations. When the image is formed on the screen, the image is real and when the image does not form on-screen, the image is virtual. When the two reflected rays meet actually, the image is real and when they appear to meet, the image is virtual. A concave mirror always forms a real and inverted image for different positions of the object. But if the object is placed between the focus and pole, the image formed is virtual and erect. A convex mirror always forms a virtual, erect, and diminished image. A concave mirror is used as a doctor’s head mirror to focus light on body parts like eyes, ears, nose, etc., to be examined because it can form erect and magnified images of the object. The convex mirror is used as a rear view mirror in automobiles because it can form a small and erect image of an object.

(i) When an object is placed at the center of curvature of a concave mirror, the image formed is

Answer: (c) same size as that of the object

(ii) No matter how far you stand from a mirror, your image appears erect. The mirror is likely to be

Answer: (d): The image is erect in a plane mirror and also in a convex mirror, for all positions of the object.

(iii) A child is standing in front of a magic mirror. She finds the image of her head bigger, the middle portion of her body of the same size and that of the legs smaller. The following is the order of combinations for the magic mirror from the top.

Answer: (c) : As the image of head is bigger, the upper portion of magic mirror is concave. The middle portion of the image is of same size, so, middle portion of magic mirror is plane. Now, the image of legs looks smaller, therefore, the lower portion of magic mirror is convex.

(iv) To get an image larger than the object, one can use (a) convex mirror but not a concave mirror (b) a concave mirror but not a convex mirror (c) either a convex mirror or a concave mirror (d) a plane mirror.

Answer: (b) a concave mirror but not a convex mirror

(v) A convex mirror has wider field of view because (a) the image formed is much smaller than the object and large number of images can be seen (b) the image formed is much closer to the mirror (c) both (a) and (b) (d) none of these.

Answer: (c) both (a) and (b)

Question 2:

The lenses form different types of images when objects are placed at different locations. When a ray is incident parallel to the principal axis, then after refraction, it passes through the focus or appears to come from the focus.

When a ray goes through the optical center of the lens, it passes without any deviation. If the object is placed between the focus and the optical center of the convex lens, an erect and magnified image is formed.

As the object is brought closer to the convex lens from infinity to focus, the image moves away from the convex lens from focus to infinity. Also, the size of the image goes on increasing and the image is always real and inverted.

A concave lens always gives a virtual, erect, and diminished image irrespective of the position of the object.

(i) The location of image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at infinity is (a) at focus (b) at 2F (c) at optical center (d) between Fand 2F

Answer: (a) at focus

(ii) When the object is placed at the focus of concave lens, the image formed is (a) real and smaller (b) virtual and inverted (c) virtual and smaller (d) real and erect

Answer: (b) virtual and inverted

(iii) The size of image formed by a convex lens when the object is placed at the focus of convex lens is (a) small (b) point in size (c) highly magnified (d) same as that of object

Answer: (c) highly magnified

(iv) When the object is placed at 2F in front of convex lens, the location of image is (a) at F (b) at 2 F on the other side (c) at infinity (d) between F and optical center

Answer: (b) at 2 F on the other side

(v) At which location of object in front of concave lens, the image between focus and optical centre is formed (a) anywhere between centre and infinity (b) at F (c) at 2F (d) infinity

Answer: (a) anywhere between centre and infinity

Case Study 3: Light reflection and refraction are fundamental phenomena that occur when light interacts with surfaces and passes through different mediums. Reflection is the bouncing back of light when it strikes a surface. The laws of reflection state that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection, and the incident ray, reflected ray, and normal at the point of incidence lie in the same plane. Refraction, on the other hand, is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another with a different optical density. The bending of light is governed by Snell’s law, which states that the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is constant for a given pair of media. The concepts of reflection and refraction help us understand various optical phenomena, such as the formation of images by mirrors and lenses, the dispersion of light, and the phenomenon of total internal reflection.

What is reflection? a) The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another b) The bouncing back of light when it strikes a surface c) The formation of images by mirrors and lenses d) The dispersion of light Answer: b) The bouncing back of light when it strikes a surface

What do the laws of reflection state? a) The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection b) The incident ray, reflected ray, and normal lie in the same plane c) The angle of incidence, angle of reflection, and normal form a right triangle d) All of the above Answer: d) All of the above

What is refraction? a) The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another b) The bouncing back of light when it strikes a surface c) The formation of images by mirrors and lenses d) The dispersion of light Answer: a) The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another

What law governs the bending of light during refraction? a) Law of reflection b) Snell’s law c) Newton’s law d) Coulomb’s law Answer: b) Snell’s law

What optical phenomena can be explained using the concepts of reflection and refraction? a) Formation of images by mirrors and lenses b) Dispersion of light c) Total internal reflection d) All of the above Answer: d) All of the above

CBSE Class 10 Physics Chapter 10 Important Questions and Answers

Laws of reflection of light states that

(i) The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

(ii) The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the mirror at the point of incidence all lie in the same plane.

Q.3. State the laws of refraction of light. Explain the term absolute refractive index of a

medium’ and write an expression to relate it with the speed of light in vacuum.

Answer- (a) Laws of refraction of light:

(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal to the interface of two transparent media at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane.

(ii) The ratio of sine of angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is constant, for the light of a given colour and for the given pair of media.

This law is also known as Snell’s law of refraction.

sini/sinr = constant,

where i is the angle of incidence and r is the angle of refraction.

This constant value is called refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first when the light travels from first medium to second medium.

⇒ constant = n21 = v1/v2 ∴sini/sinr = v1/v2

If n is the absolute refractive index of the medium, c is the velocity of light in vacuum and v is the speed of light in a given medium, then n = c/v.

Ans. As light travels from rarer to denser medium, it bends towards normal and appears to come from greater height. Therefore, to fish under water, man looks taller.

(b) a transparent medium? 

Ans. (a) Reflection of light. 

Answer- Given f = -20 cm v = -30 cm, u = ?

Using 1/v + 1/u = 1/f

1/u = 1/f – 1/v = 1/(−20) – /(−30) = (−3+2)/60

⇒ u = -60 cm

∴ Object placed at 60 cm from the mirror.

Also magnification, m = h′/h = −v/u

⇒ h’ = −(−30)/−60 × 4 = -2 cm

∴ The size of the image is 2 cm.

Answer- (a) Here, alcohol is optically denser medium as its refractive index is higher than that of water. When we compare the two media, the one with larger refractive index is called the optically denser medium than the other as the speed of light is lower in this medium.

(b) Since light is travelling from water (rarer medium) to alcohol (denser medium), it slows down and bends towards the normal.

CBSE Class 10 Physics Chapter 10 Important Questions and Answers

where i = angle of incidence and r = angle of refraction.

(c) According to Snell’s law,

sini/sinr=μalcohol /μwater =1.36/1.33 = 1.0225

∴ sin i = 1.0225 × sin r

Ans. Plane mirror produces the image of same size. Concave mirror produced the magnified image while the convex mirror will produce a diminished image

f1=25cm=0.25 m 

f2= -10cm= - 0.1m

Power of convex lens, P1 = 1/f1=1/0.25=+4D

Power of concave lens, P2 = 1/f2=1/ - 0.1m=-10D

power of combination, P = P1 +P2 = 4D – 10D = -6D

Ans: Radius of curvature (R) = 30 cm, object distance is 12 cm in front of the mirror.Thus we can say that object is placed between focus and pole. Four characteristics of the image formed by die given concave mirror when object is placed between pole and focus are:

(i) Virtual 

(iii) Enlarged 

(iv) Image is formed behind the mirror

Ans: Yes, it is correct. If the object is placed within 2.0 m from the lens in the it forms magnified virtuaL image Between 2 m and 4 m it will form a real inverted and magnified image.

Q.7. “The magnification produced by a spherical mirror is -3”. List all information youobtain from this statement about the mirror/ image.

LONG ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS

CBSE Class 10 Physics Chapter 10 Important Questions and Answers

(b) Draw a labelled ray diagram showing object distance, image distance and focal length in the above case.

Answer- (a) Given, h = 5 cm, f = 20 cm, u = -30 cm

Using lens formula, 1/v – 1/u = 1/f

1/v=1/u+1/f=1/(−30)+1/20=(−2+3)/60=1/60

⇒ v = 60 cm

Now, magnification, m = h′/h = v/u

⇒ h’ = v/u × h = 60/(−30) × 5 = -10 cm

Hence, the image formed at 60 cm, which is real and magnified.

Study Important Questions for Class 10 Science Chapter 10 - Light Reflection and Refraction

Long Answer Questions (5 Marks)

1. A convex lens has a focal length of \[10\] cm. 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 size of the image formed if the object is $2$ cm high? With the help of a ray, the diagram shows the formation of the image by the lens in this case?

Ans: Given, the focal length of the convex lens,

$\Rightarrow f=+10$ cm

Also, given the image formed is real and inverted with the image distance as $20$ cm.

$\Rightarrow v=+20$ cm

From the lens formula, we have: 

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{10}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{-1}{20}$

$\Rightarrow u=-20$ cm.

$\therefore $ The object is placed at a distance of $20$ cm.

Magnification is given as,

$\Rightarrow m=-\dfrac{v}{u}$

$\Rightarrow m=-\dfrac{20}{\left( -20 \right)}$

$\Rightarrow m=+1$

Also, magnification is given by, $m=\dfrac{Height\text{ of the image}}{Height\text{ of the object}}$.

$\therefore m=\dfrac{Height\text{ of the image}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow 1=\dfrac{Height\text{ of the image}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow Height\text{ of the image}=2$ cm.

Thus, the image is of the same size as that of the object and it is real and inverted.

The ray diagram representing the formation of the image by the lens in this case is:

The ray diagram representing the formation of the image by the lens

It is observed that the image is formed at $2{F_2}$ with the object placed at $2{F_1}$.

2. Draw a ray diagram to show the use of a convex lens for the formation of images having the following characteristics. 

a. Real & inverted and diminished 

Ans: A ray diagram representing a real & inverted and diminished image is given below.

A ray diagram representing a real & inverted and diminished

b. Virtual, erect & magnified.

Ans: A ray diagram representing a virtual, erect, and magnified image is given below.

A ray diagram representing a virtual, erect, and magnified

3. A convex lens forms a real and inverted image of a needle at a distance of $50$ cm. from it. Where is the needle placed in front of the convex lens if the image is equal to the size of objects? Also, find the power of the lens.

Ans: Given, the image is real and inverted at a distance of $50$ cm.

$\Rightarrow v=+50$ cm

Also given, Height of image $=$ Height of object

We know, magnification is given as,

$\therefore -\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{Height\text{ of the image}}{Height\text{ of the object}}$

Since, Height of image $=$ Height of object and $v=+50$ cm

$\Rightarrow -\dfrac{50}{u}=1$

$\Rightarrow u=-50$ cm

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{50}-\dfrac{1}{-50}$

$\Rightarrow f=25$ cm

$\Rightarrow f=0.25$ m

The power of a lens is given by,

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{f}$

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{0.25}$  m

$\Rightarrow P=+4$ D

4. One-half of a convex lens is covered with black paper. Will this lens produce a complete image of the object? Verify your answers experimentally. Explain your observations.

Ans: If we cover one-half of a convex lens with black paper it is observed that it produces a complete image of the object.

Representing the given situation with a ray diagram.

One-half of a convex lens is covered with black paper

Adjust the position of the burning candle such that its image is formed on the screen placed on the other side of the lens.

We get a full image of the burning candle on the screen.

Thus, from the above observation, we conclude that the formation of an image does not depend on the length of the lens, but the brightness of the image formed on the screen depends since the number of rays passing through the lens gets reduced on covering half the lens with black paper.

5. An object $5$ cm in length is held $25$ cm away from a converging lens of focal length $10$ cm. Draw the ray diagram and find the position, size, and nature of the image formed.

Ans: Given focal length of the lens, $f=+10$ cm.

Object distance from the converging lens is given to be $25$ cm and the height of the object ($ho$) is given to be $5$ cm.

$\Rightarrow u=-25$ cm

$\Rightarrow ho=5$ cm

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{-25}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{25}-\dfrac{1}{10}$

$\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{50}{3}$ cm

$\Rightarrow v=16.7$ cm

Thus, we conclude that the image formed is real and inverted and is formed at a distance of $16.7$ cm on the other side of the lens.

Also, magnification is given by, $m=\dfrac{Height\text{ of the image}}{Height\text{ of the object}}=\dfrac{hi}{ho}$.

$\therefore -\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{hi}{ho}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{16.7}{-25}=\dfrac{hi}{5}$

$\Rightarrow hi=-\dfrac{10}{3}$ cm

Hence, the image is diminished.

The ray diagram representing the above situation is drawn below.

the image formed is real and inverted and is formed at a distance

6. A convex lens of focal length $15$ cm formed an image $10$ cm from the lens. How far is the object placed from the lens? Draw the ray diagram.

Ans: Given focal length of the lens, $f=15$ cm.

Image distance from the converging lens is given to be $10$ cm.

$\Rightarrow v=-10$ cm

We observe that the image distance is less than the focal length, hence the image formed would be virtual and erect.

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{15}=\dfrac{1}{-10}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{u}=-\dfrac{1}{10}-\dfrac{1}{15}$

$\Rightarrow u=-6$ cm

The image distance is less than the focal length, hence the image formed would be virtual and erect.

Assertion and Reason Questions for Class 10 Science Chapter 10 Light-Reflection and Refraction

  • Last modified on: 1 year ago
  • Reading Time: 9 Minutes

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.

Q.1. Assertion(A) : The centre of curvature is not a part of the mirror. It lies outside its reflecting surface. Reason (R) : The reflecting surface of a spherical mirror forms a part of a sphere. This sphere has a centre.

Q.2. Assertion (A) : A ray passing through the centre of curvature of a concave mirror after reflection, is reflected back along the same path. Reason (R) : The incident rays fall on the mirror along the normal to the reflecting surface.

Q.3. Assertion (A) : Light does not travel in the same direction in all the media. Reason (R) : The speed of light does not change as it enters from one transparent medium to another.

Q.4. Assertion(A) : The emergent ray is parallel to the direction of the incident ray. Reason (R) : The extent of bending of the ray of light at the opposite parallel faces (air- glass interface and glass-air interface) of the rectangular glass slab is equal and opposite.

Q.5. Assertion(A) : A ray of light travelling from a rarer medium to a denser medium slows down and bends away from the normal. When it travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium, it speeds up and bends towards the normal. Reason (R) : The speed of light is higher in a rarer medium than a denser medium.

Q.6. Assertion(A): The mirrors used in search lights are concave spherical. Reason (R) : In concave spherical mirror the image formed is always virtual.

Q.7. Assertion(A) : Light travels faster in glass than in air. Reason (R) : Glass is denser than air.

Q.8. Assertion(A) : For observing traffic at back, the driver mirror is convex mirror. Reason (R) : A convex mirror has much larger field of view than a plane mirror.

Q.9. Assertion(A) : Mirror formula can be applied to a plane mirror. Reason (R) : A plane mirror is a spherical mirror of infinite focal length.

Q.10. Assertion(A) : It is not possible to see a virtual image by eye. Reason (R): The rays that seem to emanate from a virtual image do not in fact emanates from the image.

Q.11. Assertion(A) : When the object moves with a velocity 2 m/s, its image in the plane mirror moves with a velocity of 4 m/s. Reason (R) : The image formed by a plane mirror is as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.

Q.12. 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.

Q.13. Assertion(A) : Concave mirrors are used as make-up mirrors. Reason (R) : When the face is held within the focus of a concave mirror, then a diminished image of the face is seen in the concave mirror.

Q.14. Assertion(A) : Refractive index has no units. Reason (R) : The refractive index is a ratio of two similar quantities.

Q.15. Assertion(A) : The formula connecting u, v and f for a spherical mirror is valid in all situations for all spherical mirrors for all positions of the object. Reason (R) : Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces.

Q.16. Assertion(A): A person cannot see his image in a concave mirror, unless, he is standing beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Reason (R) : In a concave mirror, image formed is real provided the object is situated beyond its focus.

Q.17. Assertion(A): Virtual images are always erect. Reason (R) : Virtual images are formed by diverging lenses only.
