A boy is trying to start a fire by focusing sunlight on a piece of paper using an equiconvex lens of focal length 10 cm. The diameter of the sun is \(1.39\times 10^9~\text{m}\) and its mean distance from the earth is . What is the diameter of the sun's image on the paper?
1. \(
9.2 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}
\)
2. \(6.5 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}
\)
3. \(6.5 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~m}
\)
4. \( 12.4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}\)
Two convex lenses of focal lengths 10 cm and 30 cm are kept at a separation of 20 cm. Then the correct statement is:
1. | The effective focal length is 15 cm. |
2. | Chromatic aberration is minimized. |
3. | Combination behaves like a convergent lens. |
4. | All of these. |
When a ray of light falls on a given plate at an angle of incidence \(60^{\circ}\), the reflected and refracted rays are found to be normal to each other. The refractive index of the material of the plate is:
