(i)
Draw a ray diagram to show the path of the refracted ray in each of the following cases : A ray of light incident on a concave lens
(1)
parallel to its principal axis, and
(2)
is directed towards its principal focus.
(ii)
A $\displaystyle 4$ cm tall object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of convex lens of focal length $\displaystyle 24$ cm. The distance of object from the lens is $\displaystyle 16$ cm. Find the position and size of image formed.
OR 36. (b) (i) Draw a ray diagram to show the path of the reflected ray in each of the following cases : A ray of light incident on a convex mirror
(1)
parallel to its principal axis, and
(2)
is directed towards its principal focus
(ii)
A $\displaystyle 1.5$ cm tall candle flame is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a concave mirror of focal length $\displaystyle 12$ cm. If the distance of the flame from the pole of the mirror is $\displaystyle 18$ cm, use mirror formula to determine the position and size of the image formed.
