उत्तर

Given,
Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 20 cm
So its focal length will be  f = \[\frac{R}{2}\]  = −10 cm 
For part AB of the U shaped wire, PB = 30 + 10 = 40 cm

Therefore, u = −40 cm
Using mirror formula,
`1\v = -1/10 - 1/-40 =-3/40`
⇒ `V = -40/3 = 13. 3 cm`
So , PB' = 13.3 cm 
`m = (A' B')/( AB ) = -( v )/ u`

\[= \frac{- ( - 13 . 3)}{- 40} =  - \frac{1}{3}\] 

\[ \Rightarrow   A'B' =  - \frac{10}{3} =  - 3 . 33  \text{ cm }\] 

For part CD of the U shaped wire, PC = 30 cm
Therefore, u = −30 cm
Again, using mirror equation:
`1/V = -1/10 - 1/-30`
`1/V = -1/10 + 1/-30 = -1/15`
⇒ v = −15 cm = PC'
\[m = \frac{C'D'}{CD} =  - \frac{v}{u}\]
`= -( -15 )/ -30 = -1/2`
⇒ C'D' = 5 cm
⇒ B'C' = PC' − PB'
= 15 − 13.3 = 1.7 cm

Hence, the total length of the U- shaped wire is A'B' + B'C' + C'D'
= (3.3) + (1.7) + 5 = 10 cm

A car is moving with at a constant speed of 60 km h–1 on a straight road. Looking at the rear view mirror, the driver finds that the car following him is at a distance of 100 m and is approaching with a speed of 5 km h–1. In order to keep track of the car in the rear, the driver begins to glance alternatively at the rear and side mirror of his car after every 2 s till the other car overtakes. If the two cars were maintaining their speeds, which of the following statement (s) is/are correct?


(i) Consider a thin lens placed between a source (S) and an observer (O) (Figure). Let the thickness of the lens vary as `w(b) = w_0 - b^2/α`, where b is the verticle distance from the pole. `w_0` is a constant. Using Fermat’s principle i.e. the time of transit for a ray between the source and observer is an extremum, find the condition that all paraxial rays starting from the source will converge at a point O on the axis. Find the focal length.

(ii) A gravitational lens may be assumed to have a varying width of the form

`w(b) = k_1ln(k_2/b) b_("min") < b < b_("max")`

= `k_1ln (K_2/b_("min")) b < b_("min")`
