CHAPTER – LIGHT REFELCTION AND REFRACTION
SL NO QUESTIONS MARKS
For question 1 To 4 two statements are given. One labelled Assertion (A) and the
other labelled Reason(R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes
(a) , (b), (c) and (d) as given below:
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of the assertion.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
(e) A and R are false.
1. Assertion (A) : A ray passing through the centre of curvature of a concave 1
mirror after reflection, is reflected back along the same path.
Reason (R) : The incident rays fall on the mirror along the normal to the
reflecting surface.
2. Assertion: Linear magnification of a mirror has no unit. 1
Reason: The ratio of height of the image to the height of the object is the
linear magnification produced by mirror.
3. Assertion: Refractive index of glass with respect to air is different for red 1
light and violet light.
Reason : Refractive index of a pair of media depends on the wavelength of
light used.
4. Assertion (A): The refractive index of a medium determines the extent of 1
bending of light.
Reason (R): The refractive index is a measure of how much a medium can
slow down the speed of light and is directly related to the angle of
refraction.
5. The picture shows the path of light as it travels 1
from one medium to another. What is medium 1
and medium 2?
6. Which of the following characteristics of a spherical mirror is given by the 1
ratio of the size of the image to the size of the object?
a) aperture
b) magnification
c) focal length
d) radius of curvature
7. Which of the following does the negative sign in the power -3D signify? 1
a) The focus is on the same side of the lens as the object.
b) The focus is on the opposite side of the lens as the object.
c) The principal focus is situated outside the principal axis.
