To determine the refractive index of glass, place a glass block PQRS on a white paper and draw the boundary of the glass slab. Fix a pin O touching the glass slab on the side PS. Looking through the opposite face QR, fix two pins P₁ and P₂ along the same line as the image of the pin O. Remove the pins P₁ and P₂ and mark their positions. Join P₁ and P₂ and produce this line to cut the normal OA at I. Then I is the apparent position of O as seen through the glass slab (Fig.).

To determine the focal length of a convex lens.

Arrange the apparatus as shown in Fig. (a). Choose a distant object (say a tree) outside the laboratory so that light rays from it may be regarded as a parallel beam of light. Adjust the position of the white screen until a sharp image (inverted and diminished) is formed on the screen. Measure the distance between the optical centre and the image (screen). This will be the approximate focal length ‘f’ of the lens. Repeat the experiment and find the average value for ‘f’.

Determination of the focal length of a convex lens by \(u-v\) method. (Optional)

Set up a lamp, an object card (with a slit cut on it) and a white-paper screen on the table and place a metre scale by their side as shown in Fig. 9(b). Adjust the position of the lens so that a blurred image of the slit is obtained on the screen. An image on the screen may not be obtained if the slit is very near the lens. Having obtained a blurred image, move the screen back and forth till the image is sharply focussed on the screen. The slit and the lens must not be moved during this setting.

From the metre scale, measure the distance between the slit and the lens. This is the object distance \((u)\). Also measure the distance between the paper screen and the lens. This is the image distance \((v)\). Putting the values in the equation \[\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\], the focal length \(f\) of the lens can be found out. The observations are to be repeated for different values of \(u\) and the mean value of \(f\) is to be found out.

Construction of ray diagrams.

Three types of rays are considered for construction of ray diagrams. The behaviours of three types of rays, when they pass through the lens, which are used to locate the image formed by a converging lens and a diverging lens in geometrical construction, is illustrated in Fig. 
The behaviours of three types of rays when they pass through the converging lens is as follows:

1. The incident ray parallel to the principal axis passes through the focal point after refraction.
2. The incident ray passing through the focal point becomes parallel to the principal axis after refraction.
3. The incident ray passing through the optical centre \(O\) is not deviated after refraction.

Steps for the Geometrical Construction

1. Draw a line \(X Y\) on the paper to represent the principal axis [Fig. (a)].
2. Mark the position of the lens by a vertical line drawn across the principal axis at \(O\) [Fig. (b)].
3. Mark the two principal foci \(F_{2}, F_{1}\) equidistant from \(O\) [Fig. (c)].
4. Draw an object \(A B\) [Fig. (d)].
5. Draw one ray from the top of the object \(A B\) through the optical centre [Fig. (e)].
6. Draw a second ray from the top of the object parallel to the axis \(X Y\). This ray is bent and passes through \(F_{2}\) [Fig. (f)].
7. The image of the top of the object is at the point where these two rays meet. Draw the image at that point [Fig. (g)].

The trace most likely to be correct is that of student:

In an experiment to trace the path of a ray [Fig.] of of light passing through a rectangular glass slab, the correct measurement of angles of incidence (i), refraction (r) and emergence (e) is shown in figure:

Assertion: The optical density of a transparent material has nothing to do with hardness or weight.

Reason: It is a measure of the speed of light through a transparent medium.

Assertion: When a ray of light is normally incident on a shiny glass surface, it retraces its path. 

Reason: In case of normal incidence, the angle of reflection is 0°, hence the reflected say retraces its path along the normal.

Assertion: Materials with smaller angles of refraction are optically denser materials.

Reason: Smaller the angle of incidence, lesser the ray refracted up to a limit.

Assertion: The speed of light in different transparent media is different.

Reason: The speed of light in a medium changes with change in temperature of the medium.

Assertion: On passing through a rectangular glass slab, a ray of light suffers two refractions.

Reason: Light emerges from a rectangular glass slab in a direction parallel to that in which it entered the glass slab.

Assertion: Total internal reflection occurs when the rays of light strike at an angle less than the critical angle.

Reason: There is no absorption of light during total internal reflection.

Assertion: A lens with a focal length of 50 cm has a power of 2 dioptres.

Reason: The power of a lens is the reciprocal of its focal length in metres.

\[ \text { Power }=\frac{1}{\text { Focal length }(\mathrm{m})}\]

Assertion: The degree of convergence or divergence of light rays is a measure of the power of the lens. 

Reason: Power of a lens is the reciprocal of focal length of the lens.

Assertion: Intensity of scattered light varies inversely as the fourth power of the wavelength of incident light.

Reason: \[\lambda_{\mathrm{r}}: \lambda_{\mathrm{b}}\] is almost 2 : 1. Hence, blue is more prominent than red and the sky appears blue.

Assertion: The basic cause of refraction is the change in speed of light in going from one medium to the other. 

Reason: No refraction occurs when refractive indices of the two media in contact are equal.

Assertion: A coin in a glass beaker appears to rise as the beaker is slowly filled with water. 

Reason: A ray of light starting from the coin goes from water to air and bends away from normal. Therefore, the bottom of the beaker on which the coin lies appears to be raised.

Assertion: Light travels faster in a rarer medium than in a denser medium.

Reason: Refractive index of a medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of light in the medium.

Assertion: The frequency of violet colour of wavelength \(4000 \AA\) is \(7.5 \times 10^{14} \mathrm{~Hz}\). 

Reason: \(\mathrm{C}=v \lambda\)

\[\text{or } \nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}\]

\[= \frac{3 \times 10^{8}}{4000 \times 10^{-10}}\]

= 7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Assertion: Refractive index of free space (air or vacuum) is maximum.

Reason: Glass is optically denser than both air and water.

Assertion: Frequency of light does not change during refraction.

Reason: No refraction occurs when light is incident normally on a boundary of two media.
