Important Questions on Ray Optics


The refractive index of the material of the prism and liquid are and , respectively. What will be the value of for the following refraction?

A plano-convex thin lens is used to obtain the image of a point object on the screen as shown in figure. The thickness of the lens in the middle is and refractive index of the material of the lens is If the separation between the object and the screen is to be minimum, then the aperture diameter of the lens (in ) should be (consider lens as thin).



The image for the converging beam after refraction through the curved surface (in the given figure) is formed at:
