Important Questions on Ray Optics





A mirror is placed at an angled of with respect to axis (see figure). A light ray travelling in the negative direction strikes the mirror. The direction of the reflected ray is given by the vector



A point object is moving uniformly towards the pole of a concave mirror of focal length along its axis as shown below. The speed of the object is . At , the distance of the object from the mirror is . The average velocity of the image formed by the mirror between time and is:



Object pin | Convex Lens | Convex Mirror | Image Pin |
22.2 cm | 32.2 cm | 45.8 cm | 71.2 cm |




A light ray is incident, at an incident angle , on the system of two plane mirrors and having an inclination angle between them (as shown in figure). After reflecting from mirror it gets reflected back by the mirror with an angle of reflection . The total deviation of the ray will be _____ degree.

A spherical mirror is obtained as shown in the figure from a hollow glass sphere, if an object is positioned in front of the mirror, what will be the nature and magnification of the image of the object? (Figure down as schematic and not to scale)


Letters and are written on a cardboard as shown in the figure below.
The cardboard is kept at a suitable distance behind a transparent empty glass of cylindrical shape. If the glass is now filled with water, one sees an inverted image of the pattern on the cardboard when looking through the glass. Ignoring magnification effects, the image would appear as


A point source of light, is placed at a distance in front of the center of plane mirror of width which is hanging vertically on a wall. A man walks in front of the mirror along a line parallel to the mirror, at a distance as shown below. The distance over which the man can see the image of the light source in the mirror is:
