- A beam of light coming from a distant source is refracted by a spherical glass ball (refractive index 1.5) of radius 15 cm. Draw the ray diagram and obtain the position of the final image formed.
- A double convex lens of glass has both faces of the same radius of curvature 17 cm. Find its focal length if it is immersed in water. The refractive indices of glass and water are 1.5 and 1.33 respectively.
- Define ‘wavefront’ of a light wave. A plane wavefront is refracted from a convex lens. Draw the shape of the refracted wavefront.
- A plane wave travelling in a medium is incident on a plane surface separating this medium from a rarer medium. Draw a diagram to show refraction of the wave. Hence, verify Snell’s law.
- Find the focal length of the plano-convex lens of refractive index 1.5 and radius of curvature 10 cm when it is immersed in a liquid of refractive index 1.25.
