Chapter 10: Light – Reflection and Refraction

General Instructions:
1. The Practice Paper comprises objective and short and long answer type questions.
2. Attempt all questions.

1. If an object is placed at the focus of the concave mirror, where is the image formed?

2. Define the refractive index of the medium.

3. What is the nature of the image formed by a concave mirror if the magnification
produced by the mirror is +3?

4. A concave lens has a focal length of 20 cm calculate its power.

5. The radius of curvature of a spherical mirror is 30 cm. What will be its focal length?

6. Determine the focal length of a convex mirror which produces an image which is 16.0
cm behind the mirror when the object is 32 cm from the mirror.

7. A concave mirror produces three times magnified real image of an object of an object
placed at 10 cm in front of it. Where is the image located?

8. The radius of curvature of a convex mirror is 20 cm. The size of the image formed is
half to the size of the object. Find the distances of the object and image.

9. Copy and complete the ray diagram to show the formation of image. Also state the
position, size and nature of image formed.

10. The image of a candle flame formed by a lens is obtained on a screen placed on the
other side of the lens. If the image is three times the size of the flame and the distance
between lens and image is 80 cm, at what distance should the candle be placed from
the lens?
