A thin prism having refracting angle 10° is made of glass of refractive index 1.42. This prism is combined with another thin prism of glass of refractive index 1.7. This combination produces dispersion without deviation. The refracting angle of second prism should be

Explanation

(b) For dipersion without deviation, net deviation, produced by the combination of prisms must be zero.

Let, prism angle of the first and second prisms are A1  and A2 respectively. Similarly, their refractive indicates are μ1 and μ2.

Conditions for dispersion without deviation is 

               δ1-δ2=0

   μ1-1A1-μ2-1A2=0

  A2=μ1-1μ2-1A1=1.42-11.7-110°

  A2=6°

A beam of light from a source L is incident normally on a plane mirror fixed at a certain distance x from the source. The beam is reflected back as a spot on a scale placed just above the source L. When the mirror is rotated through a small angle θ, the spot of light is found to move through a distance y on the scale. The angle θ is given by

An air bubble in a glass slab with refractive index 1.5 (near normal incidence) is 5 cm deep when viewed from one surface and  3 cm deep when viewed from the opposite face. The thickness (in cm) of the slab is

Explanation

Let thickness of the given slab ist.

Refractive index of glass = Real depthApparent depth

Reak depth = n×apparent depth

When viewed from  one side:

Real depth, d1=1.5×5=7.5 cm

When viewed from other side:

Real depth, d2=1.5×3=4.5 cm

Thick of the slab = 7.5 + 4.5 = 12 cm

 

 

A person can see clearly objects only when they lie between 50 cm and 400 cm from his eyes. In order to increase the maximum distance of distinct vision to infinity, the type and power of the correcting lens, the person has to use will be-

Explanation

 

(b) image of object at  must lie within distance upto which person can view clearly.

  Image distance, v=400cm =4mu=  using lens equation,

      1v-1u=1f1-4-1=1ff=-4m

Now power of the required lens is,

      P=1f=1-4=-0.25D

 Thus the person require a concave lens of power -0.25 D

An astronomical telescope has an objective and eyepiece of focal lengths 40 cm and 4 cm respectively. To view an object 200 cm away from the objective, the lenses must be separated by a distance of :
