media at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane.

the light of a given colour and for the given pair of media. This is also called as snell’s

velocity of light is decreases, when it enters into denser medium from rarer medium.
12A. Aim : To determine approximate focal length of convexlens
Apparatus : Convex lens, screen, measuring scale, illuminated candle lens holder.
Processore : 1. Place the convex lens on the lens holder and face it towards a distant illuminated
candle
2. Arrange the screen so that a sharp image of the candle flame is formed
3. Measure the distance between the screen and the lens by using measuring scale.
The distance between the screen and the lens is the focal length of the convex lens.

So, focal length f = 1 / P (in metres) = 100 / P =100 / 4 = 25cm
Image distance, v = 40 cm
Using the lens formula,
1/v – 1/u = 1/f ⇒ 1/40 – 1/u =1/25
or object distance, u = – 200/3 = – 66.7 cm
Now,
Magnification,m = v/u = h'/h ⇒ 40/(– 200/3) = h'/3
or size of image, h' = – 1.8 cm

Image is virtual, errect and diminished.
11A. Focal length of the convex lens increases with the increase in wavelength.
We know wavelength of red is more than the wavelength of violet. So, as the wavelength decreases
the focal length also decreases.
12A. a) When we place convex lens in sun light on lens stand parallel beam of light is incident on it
after refraction all the light rays are converge at one point and produces more heat when we
keep paper at that point it becomes burn.

b) A concave lens is a diverging lens. Instead of bringing rays to one point after refraction, it
diverges them and there is no concentration of light at one point.

9A. Yes, a virtual image can be photographed by a camera.

i) A plane, mirror forms a virtual image, we can able to take photograph of that image in plane
mirror.
ii) In the same way, human eyes forms a virtual image, which can able to take a photograph.
10A. When we look directly to the sun, lens of our eyes tries to focus these rays to make the image, since
these rays are very dense and hot so our lens tries to expand more and more which kills the muscles

of our retina. So we do not see the sun directly.
