Shadow formation is an example of :

  1. rectilinear propagation of light

  2. curvilinear propagation of light

  3. dispersion of light 

  4. none of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Rayleigh Scattering is responsible for the formation of shadows which is phenomena of rectilinear propagation of light . Shadows are created when an object, animal or person blocks out a portion of a light source. Shadows form in the opposite direction of whatever is blocking that source.

Select the odd one out (shadows, eclipses, expansion, images)

  1. expansion

  2. shadows

  3. eclipses

  4. images


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Expansion is related to heat others are related to light

State whether true or false.
Shadows, eclipses and images are formed due to the rectilinear propagation of light.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Effects of rectilinear propagation of light - Formation of shadow, Formation of eclipse, Formation of images, etc

State whether true or false.
A pinhole camera can take pictures of moving objects.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It is one of the disadvantage of pinhole camera that it can't take pictures of moving object.

Beam of light incident on a plane forms a real image of reflection. The incident beam is:

  1. Parallel

  2. Convergent

  3. Divergent

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Convergent beam of light when incident in a plane mirror forms real image.

What kind of lens is used in making a pinhole camera ?

  1. Concave lens

  2. Convex lens

  3. Concavo-convex lens

  4. No lens is used


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture, a pinhole – effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side.

What is "Camera Obscura" effect ?

  1. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and gets reflected from the mirror placed at the other end of the box.

  2. Light from a scene passes from one medium to another and gets refracted

  3. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and passes through a lens placed on the opposite side of the box

  4. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture, a pinhole – effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side. Light from a scene passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which is known as the camera obscura effect.

A ray of sunlight enters a spherical water droplet $(n = \dfrac{4}{3})$ at an angle of incidence $53^\circ$ measured with respect to the normal to the surface. It is reflected from the back surface of the droplet and re-enters into air. The angle between the incoming and outgoing ray is [Take $\sin \ 53^\circ = 0.8$]

  1. $15^\circ$

  2. $127^\circ$

  3. $138^\circ$

  4. $30^\circ$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The angle between the incoming and outgoing ray is $180^o-53=127$.

A small plane mirror kept at the centre of a sphere of diameter $3\ m$, makes $12$ revolution per second. A thin light beam is made incident on the mirror. The linear speed of the light spot on the sphere, formed after reflection from the mirror is :

  1. $18\pi\ m/s$

  2. $36\pi\ m/s$

  3. $72\pi\ m/s$

  4. $144\pi\ m/s$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

When plane mirror rotates through an angle $\theta$ , the reflected ray rotates through an angle 2$\theta$. So spot on the screen will make 2 x 12 = 24  revolution per second.

 
To find the velocity 
v=2$\pi$R x frequency 
=2$\pi$ x 3 x 24
=144$\pi$ m/s

 D is the Correct answer.
 

Intensity of light due to a point source at a distance $2m$ is $20$ units. The intensity due to the same source at a distance of $4m$ is

  1. $2.5\ units$

  2. $6\ units$

  3. $80\ units$

  4. $5\ units$


Correct Option: D

Light has a wave nature,because-

  1. The light travel in a straight line

  2. Light exhibits phenomenon of reflection and refraction

  3. Lights phenomeno interference

  4. Light exhibits phenomeno of photo electric effect


Correct Option: C

Which one statement is correct -

  1. Speed of light in free space $= \frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu _0 \varepsilon _0}}$

  2. Speed of light in any medium $=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mu \varepsilon}}$

  3. $\frac{E _0}{B _0}=2C$

  4. $\frac{B _0}{E _0}=4C$


Correct Option: A

Light falls on a plane reflecting surface. For what angle of incidence is the reflected ray normal to the incident ray. 

  1. $60^o$

  2. $45^o$

  3. $90^o$

  4. $30^o$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The incident ray will have an angle of reflection of ${30^0}$ $($made with a surface normal to the mirror surface$).$

Hence,
option $(D)$ is correct answer.

Choose the correct option from the following 

$ Statement I:$ If the size of the hole in a pinhole camera is as big as the size of a green gram then the image becomes thick and the details of the image are not clearly seen. 

$Statement II:$ If the distance of the object from pinhole camera is increased then the size of the image that is observed on the screen also increases.

$Statement III :$ If the distance between screen and hole in the pinhole camera is increasing we observe the image is becoming blurred 

  1. All are correct

  2. $I, II$ are correct

  3. $II, III$ are correct

  4. $I, III $are correct


Correct Option: A

The speed of light in air is ___________ m/s.

  1. $3$

  2. $3\times { 10 }^{ -5 }$

  3. $3\times { 10 }^{ 8 }$

  4. $3\times { 10 }^{ 10 }$


Correct Option: C

The Image formed in a pinhole camera  is real. 

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A

State the effect on the image formed by a pinhole camera if the size of the hole is increased.

  1. The image becomes blurred

  2. The image gets sharper

  3. The image completely vanishes

  4. No image is formed to begin with


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

If the size of the hole increases the image will be blurred as several 
images are formed which overlap each other
