20. A quality control engineer working at the Davinci Glass Company has invented a new method to
measure the thickness of glass panes. By directing a laser beam at an incident angle of 45° w.r.t. the
glass, he notices that not one but two parallel beams are reflected. He measures the distance between
the reflected beams with an automated camera system, as shown. (The camera is pointed directly at
the reflected beams). Assuming that the index of refraction of glass is Ö2, and the distance between
the reflected beams is measured to be 1 mm, how thick is the glass ?

Sol. Given,
Convex lens of focal length f1 = 15 cm
Concave mirror of focal length = 10 cm
Distance between mirror and lens = 50 cm.
length of the pin = h0 = 2 cm
The pin (object) is placed at a distance of 30 cm from the lens on the principle axis.
Using lens formula

Sol. Refractive inex of both the glass and the liquid are the same for yellow and hence no deviation, i.e.
yellow travels without deviation. However, red ray enters from a rarer to a relatively denser medium
i.e. red ray is deviated towards base while blue ray enters from a denser medium to a relatively rarer
medium hence the blue ray is deviated towards the vertex.

Sol. i1=60° i2=f

According to given problem

A = 30°, i1 = 60°
and d = 30° and as in a prism
d = (i1 + i2) – A, 30°
= (60 + i2) – 30 i.e., i2
=0
So the emergent ray is perpendicular to the face from which it emerges.
Now as i2 = 0, r2 = 0
But as r1 + r2 = A,
r1 = A = 30°
So at first face

73. A man is looking at a small object placed at his near point. Without altering the opsition of his eye or
the object, he puts a simple microscope of magnifying power 5X before his eyes. The angular
magnification achieved is
(A) 5 (B) 2.5 (C) 1 (D) 0.2
Ans. (C)
74. The feal length of the objcetive of a compound microscope is fo and its distance from the eyepiece is
L. The object is placed at a distance u from the objective. For proper working of the instrument.
(A) L > u (B) L > u (C) f0 < l < 2f0 (D) L > 2f0.
Ans. (B, D)
75. The separation between the objective and the eyepiece of a compound microscope can be adjusted
between 9.8 cm to 11.8 cm. If the focal lengths of the objective and the eyepiece are 1.0 cm and 6 cm
respectively, find the range of the magnifying power if the image is always needed at 24 cm from the
eye.
Ans. 20 to 30
76. An eye can distinguish between two points of an object if they are separated by more than 0.22 mm
when the object is placed at 25 cm from the eye. The object is now seen by a compound microscope
having a 20 D objective and 10 D eyepiece separated by a distance of 20 cm. The final image is
formed at 25 cm from the eye. What is the minimum separation between two points of the object
which can now be distinguished ?
Ans. 0.04 mm
77. An optical instrument used for angular magnification has a 25 D objective and a 20 D eyepiece. The
tube length is 25 cm when the eye is least strained.

Ans. + 4.5 D
79. A lady uses +1.5 D glasses to have normal vision from 25 cm onwards. She uses a 20 D lens as a
simple microscope to see an object. Find the maximum magnifying power if she uses the microscope
(a) together with her glass
(b) without the glass.

Do the answers suggest that an object can be more clearly seen through a microscope without using
the correcting glasses ?
Ans. 6, 9
80. A lady cannot see objects closer than 40 cm from the left eye and closer than 100 cm from the right
eye. While on a mountaineering trip, she is lost from her team. She tries to make an astronomical
