14.
Namit was driving a car and suddenly became aware of a loud sound coming from behind. He looked through his rear view mirror and saw an ambulance. He recalled reading that such emergency vehicles often have their name written in the mirror (AMBULANCE) or writing,
i.e. 3 J VI A J U 8 M A.
He quickly made way for the ambulance, murmuring a quick prayer for the speedy recovery of the patient inside the ambulance.
(a) Name the type of mirror which is used as a rear view mirror and why?
(b) Mention values did Namit exhibit.
15.
It was observed that when the distance between an object and a lens decreases, the size of the image increases. What is the nature of this lens? If you keep on decreasing the distance between the object and the lens, will you still able to obtain the image on the screen? Explain
16.

17.
You are provided with a concave mirror, a convex mirror, a concave lens and a convex lens To obtain an enlarged image of an object, you can use either
concave mirror or convex mirror
concave mirror or convex lens
concave mirror or concave lens
concave lens or convex lens
18.

20.
Boojho and Paheli were given one mirror each by their teacher. Boojho found his image to be erect and of the same size, whereas Paheli found her image erect and smaller in size. This means that the mirrors of Boojho and Paheli respectively are
plane mirror and concave mirror
concave mirror and convex mirror
plane mirror and convex mirror
convex mirror and plane mirror
1.
A concave mirror can form a real image of an object.
2.
Uses of convex mirror
(i) It is used in side mirrors of vehicles.
(ii) It is used in reflector of torch.
Uses of concave mirror
(i) It is used by doctors to examine eyes, ears, etc.
(ii) It is also used by dentists to see an enlarged image of the teeth
3.
Difference between convex and concave lenses
| Convex lens | Concave lens |
|---|---|
| (i) It can form real and virtual image both | It always form virtual image |
| (ii) It can form inverted image of an object. | Image formed by concave lens is always diminished. |
4.
An image that cannot be obtained on a screen is called virtual image. In case of plane mirror, virtual image is formed.
5.
Image formed by the plane mirror shows lateral inversion, i.e. left seems to be right and vice-versa. In case of alphabetic letters A, H, I, M, 0, T, U, V, W, X, Y show same image in the plane mirror.
6.
Characteristics of the image formed by the plane mirror are
(i) It is virtual.
(ii) It is erect.
(iii) It is same in size.
(iv) It is at same distance from the mirror as the distance of an object from the mirror.
7.

12.
As we know that sunlight consists of mixture of seven colours (i.e. VIBGYOR).
13.
(a) Dispersion of white light is the name of phenomenon which leads to the formation of band of seven colours.
(b) There are seven constituent colours of white light, they are Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red (i.e. VIBGYOR).
(c) Ramesh seems to be quite innovative with respect to the scientific methods and also very eager to learn science regarding phenomena.
14.
(a) Convex mirror is a mirror which is used as a rearview mirror. It is used to get a wide view of traffic behind.
(b) The values exhibit by Namit here is courtesy concerned for other, sympathy, knowledgeable.
15.
On decreasing the distance between the object and lens, the size of the image increases, the nature of the lens will be convex type.
If the distance between object and lens is less than the focus of the lens, then it forms a virtual image and this image cannot be obtained on a screen but formed on the same side of the object.
