  2. the magnifying power of the microscope and telescope will increase

  3. the magnifying power of the microscope and telescope will decrease

  4. the magnifying power of microscope will decrease but that of the telescope will increase


Correct Option: D

In myopia

  1. image is formed in front of the retina

  2. image is formed behind the retina

  3. image is formed on the retina

  4. no image is formed

  1. greater than the focal length of eye piece

  2. less than the focal length of eye piece

  3. equal to the focal length of eye piece

  4. None of these


Correct Option: B

Electron microscope is superior to an optical microscope in

  1. having better resolving power

  2. being easy to handle

  3. low cost

  4. quickness of observation


Correct Option: A

An optical instrument gives the magnifying power which is

  2. 2 cm

  3. 25 cm

  4. 1 m


Correct Option: B

In which of the following the final image is erect?

  1. Galilean telescope

  2. Compound microscope

  3. Astronomical telescope

  4. All the above


Correct Option: A

When objects at different distances are seen by the eye, which of the following remains constant?

  1. The focal length of the eye lens

  2. The object distance from the eye lens

  3. The radii of curvature of the eye lens

  4. The image distance from the eye lens


Correct Option: D

Presbyopia can be corrected by

  1. plano convex lenses

  2. bifocal lenses

  3. cylindrical lenses

  4. concave spherical lenses


Correct Option: B

Radio telescope is used to see

  1. distant stars and planets

  2. sun and to measure its temperature

  3. stars and to measure its diameter

  4. None of these


Correct Option: D

A man wearing glasses of focal length +1 m cannot see clearly beyond 1 m

  1. if he is longsighted

  2. if he is shortsighted

  3. if his vision is normal

  4. in each of these cases


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Beyond 1 m, every image will be behind the lens. This means that conveying rays will fall on our eyes. Human eye can only see diverging rays as conveying rays mean an object inside the eye, whose image can never be created inside the eye.

To produce a magnified erect image of a far off object, we will require a convex lens along

  1. another convex lens

  2. a concave lens

  3. a plane mirror

  4. a concave mirror


Correct Option: B

In compound microscope for large magnification size, the eye piece should be of focal length

  1. equal to objective

  2. greater than objective

  3. less than objective

  4. of any value


Correct Option: B

Directions: The following question has four choices out of which ONLY ONE is correct.

Myopia is due to

  1. elongation of the eye ball

  2. irregular change in focal length

  3. shortening of the eye ball

  4. older age


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Myopia is due to elongation of the eye ball.

In case of hypermetropia

  1. the image of a distant object is formed in front of the retina

  2. the image of a near object is formed behind the retina

  3. a concave lens should be used for correction

  4. a convex lens cannot be used for correction


Correct Option: B
