A light ray is incident at an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) on a transparent surface separating two media. If the angle of refraction is \(60^{\circ}\), then the critical angle is:
1.
2.
3.
4. \(45^{\circ}\)
In the figure shown the angle made by the light ray with the normal in the medium of refractive index is:
1. \(30^{\circ}\)
2. \(60^{\circ}\)
3. \(90^{\circ}\)
4. None of these
A fish is a little away below the surface of a lake. If the critical angle is \(49^{\circ}\), then the fish could see things above the water surface within an angular range of \(\theta^{\circ}\) where:
1. | \(\theta = 49^{\circ}\) | 2. | \(\theta = 90^{\circ}\) |
3. | \(\theta = 98^{\circ}\) | 4. | \(\theta = 24\frac{1}{2}^{\circ}\) |
An object is placed at a point distance \(x\) from the focus of a convex lens and its image is formed at \(I\) as shown in the figure. The distances \(x\) and \(x'\) satisfy the relation:
1. \(\frac{x+x'}{2} = f\)
2. \(f = xx'\)
3. \(x+x' \le 2f\)
4. \(x+x' \ge 2f\)
In total internal reflection when the angle of incidence is equal to the critical angle for the pair of media in contact, what will be the angle of refraction?

2. | \(180^{\circ}\) |
3. | \(0^{\circ}\) |
4. | equal to the angle of incidence |
A small coin is resting on the bottom of a beaker filled with a liquid. A ray of light from the coin travels up, to the surface of the liquid and moves along its surface (see figure).
How fast is the light traveling in the liquid?
1. | \(1.8 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) | 2. | \(2.4 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) |
3. | \(3.0 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) | 4. | \(1.2 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) |
Focal length of objective lens and eyepiece of an astronomical telescope are 200 cm and 10 cm respectively. The length of telescope for maximum magnification is nearly:
1. | 207 cm | 2. | 210 cm |

2. 80 cm
3. 90 cm
4. infinity
