Q1.What is the path of a ray of light that passes through the optical centre of any lens?

A. It converges at the principal focus. B. It emerges parallel to the principal axis. C. It deviates significantly from its original path. D. It emerges without any deviation.

Q2.According to the sign convention for spherical lenses, from which point are all measurements taken?

A. The principal focus B. The centre of curvature C. The optical centre D. The pole of the lens

Q3.As per the sign convention for spherical lenses, what is the nature of the focal length of a convex lens?

A. Always negative B. Always positive C. Can be positive or negative depending on the object's position D. Depends on the refractive index of the lens material

Q4.According to the sign convention for spherical lenses, what is the nature of the focal length of a concave lens?

A. Always positive B. Always negative C. Can be positive or negative depending on the image's position D. Depends on the medium surrounding the lens

Q5.Which of the following quantities requires appropriate signs when applying the sign convention for spherical lenses?

A. Object-distance (u) B. Image-distance (v) C. Focal length (f) D. All of the above

Q6.What is the correct lens formula that gives the relationship between object-distance (u), image-distance (v), and focal length (f) for spherical lenses?

A. 1/v + 1/u = 1/f B. 1/v - 1/u = 1/f C. 1/u - 1/v = 1/f D. 1/f - 1/u = 1/v

A. Ratio of height of object to height of image B. Ratio of height of image to height of object C. Product of height of image and height of object D. Difference between height of image and height of object

Q10.Which of the following equations correctly represents the relationship between magnification (m), image-distance (v), and object-distance (u) for a lens?

A. m = u/v B. m = v/u C. m = v * u D. m = v - u
