प्रश्न
The boy walks towards the mirror at a speed of 1 m/s. At what speed does his image approach him?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The image approaches him at a speed of 2 m/s . The reason being, the image moves at a speed of 1 m/s and
the relative speed of the image will be equal to the sum of the speeds of the image and the boy.

The refractive index of four substances A, B, C, and D are 1.31, 1.43, 1.33, 2.4 respectively. The speed of light is maximum in
Assertion and reasoning type
- Assertion: If the refractive index of the medium is high (denser medium) the velocity of the light in that medium will be small
- Reason: Refractive index of the medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of the light
