Class X

1. Write the factors on which the lateral shift depends. [1]

2. Find the focal length of a lens of power -2.0 D. What type of lens is this? [1]
3. An object is placed at a distance of 30 cm from a concave lens of focal length 15 cm.
List four characteristics (nature, position, etc.) of the image formed by the lens. [2]

4. Draw the ray diagrams for the following cases;
(a) An object placed in front of a concave lens.
(b) An object placed between optical centre and focus of a convex lens. [3]

5. A student has to project a three times magnified image of a candle flame on a wall.
Name the type of lens required for the purpose. If the candle flame is at a distance of 6
m from the wall, find the focal length of the lens. [3]

Class IX

1. Is the work a scalar or vector quantity? A force of 7 N acting on an object displaces it

by 10 m in its direction. Find the work done in this case. [1]
2. When is the work done by a force zero? Give a suitable example. [1]
3. The kinetic energy of an object of mass ‘m’, moving with a velocity 5 m/s is 25J. What
will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is
(i) doubled, (ii) tripled? [2]
4. Define kinetic energy and derive an expression for it. [3]
5. Define work and write its SI units.
Calculate the work done by the engine of a car of mass 1000 kg whose speed increases
from 72 km/h to 126 km/h. [3]
