उत्तर

form nearly a point image of a point source
Since, when reflected back, they meet at a single point forming a point image of a point source.

A spherical surface of radius 30 cm separates two transparent media and B with refractive indices 1.33 and 1.48 respectively. The medium A is on the convex side of the surface. Where should a point object be placed in medium A so that the paraxial rays become parallel after refraction at the surface?

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?

  1. The length of the telescope tube is 20.02 m.
  2. The magnification is 1000.
  3. The image formed is inverted.
  4. An objective of a larger aperture will increase the brightness and reduce chromatic aberration of the image.

A short object of length L is placed along the principal axis of a concave mirror away from focus. The object distance is u. If the mirror has a focal length f, what will be the length of the image? You may take L << |v – f|.


(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")`

Show that an observer will see an image of a point object as a ring about the center of the lens with an angular radius

`β = sqrt((n - 1)k_1 u/v)/(u + v)`
