Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
sinθC=1μ=12μ2<sinθC\sin {\theta _C} = {1 \over \mu } = {1 \over {2{\mu _2}}} < \sin {\theta _C}

sinθ\theta > sinθ\thetaC θ\theta > θ\thetaC Total internal reflection will happen.

Q53
The speed of light in media 'A' and 'B' are 2.0×10102.0 \times {10^{10}} cm/s and 1.5×10101.5 \times {10^{10}} cm/s respectively. A ray of light enters from the medium B to A at an incident angle 'θ\theta'. If the ray suffers total internal reflection, then
A θ=sin1(34)\theta = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 4}} \right)
B θ>sin1(23)\theta > {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{2 \over 3}} \right)
C θ<sin1(34)\theta < {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 4}} \right)
D θ>sin1(34)\theta > {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 4}} \right)
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
μA=3×1082×108=1.5{\mu _A} = {{3 \times {{10}^8}} \over {2 \times {{10}^8}}} = 1.5
μB=3×1081.5×108=2{\mu _B} = {{3 \times {{10}^8}} \over {1.5 \times {{10}^8}}} = 2

For TIR

θ>ic\theta > {i_c}
θ>sin1(1.52)\theta > {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{1.5} \over 2}} \right)
θ>sin1(34)\theta > {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {{3 \over 4}} \right)
Q54
Car B overtakes another car A at a relative speed of 40 ms-1. How fast will the image of car B appear to move in the mirror of focal length 10 cm fitted in car A, when the car B is 1.9 m away from the car A?
A 4 ms-1
B 0.2 ms-1
C 40 ms-1
D 0.1 ms-1
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Here,

1v+1u=1f{1 \over v} + {1 \over u} = {1 \over f}

.......(1) \Rightarrow

1v+1190=110{1 \over v} + {1 \over { - 190}} = {1 \over {10}}

\Rightarrow v =

192{{19} \over 2}

Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t t we get

1v2(dvdt)1u2(dudt)=0- {1 \over {{v^2}}}\left( {{{dv} \over {dt}}} \right) - {1 \over {{u^2}}}\left( {{{du} \over {dt}}} \right) = 0

\Rightarrow

(dvdt)=v2u2(dudt)\left( {{{dv} \over {dt}}} \right) = - {{{v^2}} \over {{u^2}}}\left( {{{du} \over {dt}}} \right)

\Rightarrow

(dvdt)=(192190)2×40\left( {{{dv} \over {dt}}} \right) = - {\left( {{{{{19} \over 2}} \over {190}}} \right)^2} \times 40
=1400×40=0.1= {1 \over {400}} \times 40 = 0.1

Q55
Time taken by light to travel in two different materials AA and BB of refractive indices μA\mu_{A} and μB\mu_{B} of same thickness is t1t_{1} and t2t_{2} respectively. If t2t1=5×1010t_{2}-t_{1}=5 \times 10^{-10} s and the ratio of μA\mu_{A} to μB\mu_{B} is 1:21: 2. Then, the thickness of material, in meter is: (Given vAv_{\mathrm{A}} and vBv_{\mathrm{B}} are velocities of light in AA and BB materials respectively.)
A 5×1010vAm5 \times 10^{-10} \,v_{\mathrm{A}}\, \mathrm{m}
B 5×1010 m5 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~m}
C 1.5×1010 m1.5 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~m}
D 5×1010vBm5 \times 10^{-10} \,v_{\mathrm{B}} \,\mathrm{m}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
t2t1=5×1010{t_2} - {t_1} = 5 \times {10^{ - 10}}
dvBdvA=5×1010\Rightarrow {d \over {{v_B}}} - {d \over {{v_A}}} = 5 \times {10^{ - 10}}

and,

vBvA=μAμB=12{{{v_B}} \over {{v_A}}} = {{{\mu _A}} \over {{\mu _B}}} = {1 \over 2}
d(1vBvA)=5×1010×vB\Rightarrow d\left( {1 - {{{v_B}} \over {{v_A}}}} \right) = 5 \times {10^{ - 10}} \times {v_B}
d(112)=5×1010×vB\Rightarrow d\left( {1 - {1 \over 2}} \right) = 5 \times {10^{ - 10}} \times {v_B}
d=10×1010×vBm\Rightarrow d = 10 \times {10^{ - 10}} \times {v_B}\,m
d=5×1010×vAm\Rightarrow d = 5 \times {10^{ - 10}} \times {v_A}\,m
Q56
For an object placed at a distance 2.4 m from a lens, a sharp focused image is observed on a screen placed at a distance 12 cm from the lens. A glass plate of refractive index 1.5 and thickness 1 cm is introduced between lens and screen such that the glass plate plane faces parallel to the screen. By what distance should the object be shifted so that a sharp focused image is observed again on the screen?
A 0.8 m
B 3.2 m
C 1.2 m
D 5.6 m
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

The shift produced by the glass plate is

d=t(11μ)=1×(111.5)=13d = t\left( {1 - {1 \over \mu }} \right) = 1 \times \left( {1 - {1 \over {1.5}}} \right) = {1 \over 3}

cm So final image must be produced at

(1213)\left( {12 - {1 \over 3}} \right)

cm

=353= {{35} \over 3}

cm from lens so that glass plate must shift it to produce image at screen. So

1121240=1f=135/31u{1 \over {12}} - {1 \over { - 240}} = {1 \over f} = {1 \over {35/3}} - {1 \over u}
1u=3351121240{1 \over u} = {3 \over {35}} - {1 \over {12}} - {1 \over {240}}

or

u=560u = - 560

cm so shift

=5.62.4=3.2= 5.6 - 2.4 = 3.2

Q57
Light travels in two media M1M_{1} and M2M_{2} with speeds 1.5×108 ms11.5 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1} and 2.0×108 ms12.0 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1} respectively. The critical angle between them is :
A tan1(37)\tan ^{-1}\left(\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{7}}\right)
B tan1(23)\tan ^{-1}\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)
C cos1(34)\cos ^{-1}\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)
D sin1(23)\sin ^{-1}\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Critical angle between them

sinic=μ2μ1=v1v2\sin {i_c} = {{{\mu _2}} \over {{\mu _1}}} = {{{v_1}} \over {{v_2}}}
sinic=34\sin {i_c} = {3 \over 4}
tanic=37\Rightarrow \tan {i_c} = {3 \over {\sqrt 7 }}
ic=tan137{i_c} = {\tan ^{ - 1}}{3 \over {\sqrt 7 }}
Q58
A microscope was initially placed in air (refractive index 1). It is then immersed in oil (refractive index 2). For a light whose wavelength in air is λ\lambda, calculate the change of microscope's resolving power due to oil and choose the correct option.
A Resolving power will be 14\dfrac{1}{4} in the oil than it was in the air.
B Resolving power will be twice in the oil than it was in the air.
C Resolving power will be four times in the oil than it was in the air.
D Resolving power will be 12\dfrac{1}{2} in the oil than it was in the air.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

The resolving power of a microscope is determined by the Rayleigh criterion, which states that it is inversely proportional to the wavelength of light used in the medium in which the microscopy is being performed.

Mathematically, the resolving power (RP) can be represented as: RP=1λn RP = \dfrac{1}{\lambda_n} where λn\lambda_n is the wavelength of light in the medium, which can be found using the formula: λn=λn \lambda_n = \dfrac{\lambda}{n} Here, λ\lambda is the wavelength of light in vacuum (or air, for practical purposes, since their refractive indices are close enough), and nn is the refractive index of the medium.

In air, the refractive index n=1n = 1, so the wavelength of light in air (λair\lambda_{air}) is equal to λ\lambda.

In oil, the refractive index n=2n = 2, so the wavelength of light in oil (λoil\lambda_{oil}) is λ/2\lambda / 2.

Therefore, the change in resolving power when moving from air to oil can be calculated as the ratio of resolving powers in oil to air: RPoilRPair=λairλoil=λλ/2=2 \dfrac{RP_{oil}}{RP_{air}} = \dfrac{\lambda_{air}}{\lambda_{oil}} = \dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda / 2} = 2 This means that the resolving power in oil is twice that in air.

Thus, the correct option is: Option B: Resolving power will be twice in the oil than it was in the air.

Q59
In normal adujstment, for a refracting telescope, the distance between objective and eye piece is 30 cm30 \mathrm{~cm}. The focal length of the objective, when the angular magnification of the telescope is 2 , will be :
A 20 cm
B 30 cm
C 10 cm
D 15 cm
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

\because

m=fofem = {{{f_o}} \over {{f_e}}}
2=fofe\Rightarrow 2 = {{{f_o}} \over {{f_e}}}

...... (i) and,

l=fo+fel = {f_o} + {f_e}
30=fo+fe\Rightarrow 30 = {f_o} + {f_e}

..... (ii)

30=fo+fo2\Rightarrow 30 = {f_o} + {{{f_o}} \over 2}
30×23=fo\Rightarrow 30 \times {2 \over 3} = {f_o}
fo=20\Rightarrow {f_o} = 20

Q60
The power of a lens (biconvex) is 1.25 m11.25 \mathrm{~m}^{-1} in particular medium. Refractive index of the lens is 1.5 and radii of curvature are 20 cm20 \mathrm{~cm} and 40 cm40 \mathrm{~cm} respectively. The refractive index of surrounding medium:
A 1.0
B 97\dfrac{9}{7}
C 32\dfrac{3}{2}
D 43\dfrac{4}{3}
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

\because

1f=(μ2μ11)(1R11R2){1 \over f} = \left( {{{{\mu _2}} \over {{\mu _1}}} - 1} \right)\left( {{1 \over {{R_1}}} - {1 \over {{R_2}}}} \right)
1.25100=(1.5μ11)(120+140)\Rightarrow {{1.25} \over {100}} = \left( {{{1.5} \over {{\mu _1}}} - 1} \right)\left( {{1 \over {20}} + {1 \over {40}}} \right)
180=(1.5μ11)×(4+2)80\Rightarrow {1 \over {80}} = \left( {{{1.5} \over {{\mu _1}}} - 1} \right) \times {{(4 + 2)} \over {80}}
1.5μ11=16\Rightarrow {{1.5} \over {{\mu _1}}} - 1 = {1 \over 6}
1.5μ1=76\Rightarrow {{1.5} \over {{\mu _1}}} = {7 \over 6}
μ1=1.5×67=97\Rightarrow {\mu _1} = {{1.5 \times 6} \over 7} = {9 \over 7}
