The diameter of the aperture of a plano-convex lens is 6 cm and its maximum thickness is 3 mm. If the velocity of light in the material of the lens is 2 x 108 m/s, its focal length is (approximately):
(1) 10 cm
(2) 15 cm
(3) 30 cm
(4) 60 cm
Two plano-convex lenses of equal focal lengths are arranged as shown.
The ratio of the combined focal lengths is:
(1) 1: 2: 1
(2) 1: 2: 3
(3) 1: 1: 1
(4) 2: 1: 2
When an object is at a distance of u1 and u2 from a lens, a real image and a virtual image is formed respectively having the same magnification. The focal length of the lens is:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
A concave lens of focal length f produces an image (1/x) of the size of the object. The distance of the object from the lens is:
(1) (x - 1)f
(2) (x + 1)f
(3) {(x - 1)/x}f
(4) {(x + 1)/x}f
A thin equiconvex glass lens of refractive index 1.5 has a power of 5D. When the lens is immersed in a liquid of refractive index , it acts as a divergent lens of focal length 100 cm. The value of of liquid is:
(1) 4 / 3
(2) 3 / 4
(3) 5 / 3
(4) 8 / 3
In the case of the displacement method of lenses, the product of magnification in both cases is:
(1) 1
(2) 2
(3) Zero
(4) Infinite
In the displacement method, a convex lens is placed in between an object and a screen. If the magnifications in the two positions are m1 and m2 and the displacement of the lens between the two positions is x, then the focal length of the lens is:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
The focal length of a planoconvex glass lens is 20 cm . The plane face of it is silvered. An illuminating object is placed at a distance of 60 cm from the lens on its axis along the convex side. Then the distance (in cm) of the image is:
(1) 20
(2) 30
(3) 40
(4) 12
Two thin similar convex glass surfaces are joined together front to front with its rear portion silvered such that a sharp image of an object at infinity is formed 20 cm from the mirror. When the air between the glass pieces is replaced by water , then the image formed from the mirror is at a distance of: (Thickness of lens is negligible.)
(1) 8 cm
(2) 10 cm
(3) 6 cm
(4) 12 cm
A convex lens of focal length 100 cm and a concave lens of focal length 10 cm are placed coaxially at a separation of 90 cm. If a parallel beam of light is incident on the convex lens, then after passing through the two lenses, the beam:
(1) Converges
(2) Diverges
(3) Remains parallel
(4) Disappears
