Q

Pick the wrong answer in the context with rainbow

• Option 1)

When the light rays undergo two internal  reflection in a water drop , a secondary rainbow is formed

• Option 2)

The order of colors is reversed in the secondary rainbow

• Option 3)

An observer can see a rainbow when his front is towards the sun

• Option 4)

Rainbow is a combined effect of dispersion , refreaction and reflection of sunlight

Rainbow can seen when back is towards the Sun.Option 1)When the light rays undergo two internal  reflection in a water drop , a secondary rainbow is formed Option 2)The order of colors is reversed in the secondary rainbow Option 3)An observer can see a rainbow when his front is towards the sun Option 4)Rainbow is a combined effect of dispersion , refreaction and reflection of sunlight

Two similar thin equiconvex lenses , of focal length f each , are kept  coaxially in contact  with each other such that the focal length of the combination is $F_1$ . When the space between the two lenses is filled  with glycerin  then the equivalent  focal length is $F_2$ . The ratio $F_1 : F_2$

• Option 1)

2 : 1

• Option 2)

1 : 2

• Option 3)

2 : 3

• Option 4)

3 : 4

Option 1)2 : 1 Option 2)1 : 2 Option 3)2 : 3 Option 4)3 : 4

In total internal reflection when the angle of incidende is equal to the critical angle for the pair of media in contact  what will be angle of refraction ?

• Option 1)

180

• Option 2)

• Option 3)

equal to angle of incidence

• Option 4)

90

For internal refection  at Option 1)180 Option 2)0 Option 3)equal to angle of incidence Option 4)90

...so why is u=+10 and not -10 ? As it will be in the direction opposite to the incident rays

According to the setup the image formed by 1st lens is real and it is 10 cm from the 2nd lens. But the rays after having refraction from 1st lens form a virtual image and hence this virtual image is on the left side of the 2nd lens and that is why they took -10 and not +10 for u2

A linear aperture whose width is 0.02 cm is placed immediately in front of a lens of focal length 60 cm. The aperture is illuminated normally by a
parallel beam of wavelength 5 x 10-5 cm. The distance of the first dark band of the diffraction pattern from the centre of the screen is

• Option 1)

0.10 cm

• Option 2)

0.25 cm

• Option 3)

0.20 cm

• Option 4)

0.15 cm

None The screen must be placed at a distance of 60cm from lens. Hence  For first d ark b and b = 1.5 mm or 0.15cm Option 1) 0.10 cm This solution is incorrect. Option 2) 0.25 cm This solution is incorrect. Option 3) 0.20 cm This solution is incorrect. Option 4) 0.15 cm This solution is correct.
