Figure shows a cubical room ABCD with the wall CD as a plane mirror. Each side of the
room is 3m. We place a camera at the midpoint of the wall AB. At what distance should
the camera be focussed to photograph an object placed at A

2. 3 m
3. 6 m
4. More than 6 m
If an object moves towards a plane mirror with a speed v at an angle to the perpendicular to the plane of the mirror, find the relative velocity between the object and the image

To an astronaut in a spaceship, the sky appears:
1. Black
2. White
3. Green
4. Blue
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 , the spot of light is found to move through a distance y on the scale. The angle is given by

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 :
1. 46.0 cm
2. 50.0 cm
3. 54.0 cm
4. 37.3 cm

The angle of incidence for a ray of light at a refracting surface of a prism is 45°. The angle of prism is 60°. If the ray suffers minimum deviation through the prism, the angle of deviation and refracting index of the material of the prism respectively are
(a)30°,
(b)45°,
(c)30°,
(d)45°,
The refracting angle of a prism is \(A\), and refractive index of the material of the prism is \(\cot{\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)}\). The angle of minimum deviation is:
1. \(180^{\circ}-3A\)
2. \(180^{\circ}-2A\)
3. \(90^{\circ}-A\)
4. \(180^{\circ}+2A\)
