The boy walks towards the mirror at a speed of 1 m/s. At what speed does his image approach him?
Explain why, though both a plane mirror and a sheet of paper reflect light but we can see the image of our face in a plane mirror but not in a sheet of paper.
The image formed by a plane mirror is :
(a) virtual, behind the mirror and enlarged.
(b) virtual, behind the mirror and of the same size as the object.
(c) real, at the surface of the mirror and enlarged.
(d) real, behind the mirror and of the same size as the object.
A man sits in an optician's chair looking into plane mirror which is 2 m away from him and views the image of a chart which faces the mirror and is 50 cm behind his head. How far away from his eyes does the chart appear to be?
If a ray of light goes from a rarer medium to a denser medium, will it bend towards the normal or away from it?
If a ray of light goes form a denser medium to a rarer medium, will it bend towards the normal or away from the normal?
A ray of light travelling in air is incident on a rectangular glass block and emerges out into the air from the opposite face. Draw a labelled ray diagram to show the completer path of this ray of light. Mark the two points where the refraction of light takes place. What can you say about the final direction of ray of light?
What is meant by the ‘angle of incidence’ for a ray of light?

- Show the lateral displacement of the ray on the diagram.
Show the lateral displacement of the ray on the diagram.
Explain with the help of a labelled ray diagram, why a pencil partly immersed in water appears to be bent at the water surface. State whether the bending of pencil will increase or decrease if water is replaced by another liquid which is optically more dense than water. Give reason for your answer.
The speed of light is more in glass than in water.
Light travels at a lower speed in water than in air.

Why does a ray of light bend when it travels from one medium to another?
Numerical problems.
