In the dispersion of white light from a prism, the violet light is deviated more than the red light because :
  • Velocity of violet rays of light is more
  • Wavelength of violet rays of light is more
  • The frequency of violet rays of light is more
  • The refractive index of prism for violet rays of light is more
How many times do the components of white light undergo deviation while passing through the prism ?
  • Once
  • Twice
  • Thrice
  • Never
In spectrum obtained with prism which color is deviated maximum ?
  • Violet
  • Red
  • Green
  • Orange
A person near point of vision is $$100 cm$$. Then, the power of lens he must wear so as to have normal vision is :
  • $$-3 D$$
  • $$+3 D$$
  • $$-1 D$$
  • $$+1 D$$
Why do we study the Dispersion phenomenon using a glass prism and not a glass slab ?
  • Light doesn't undergo any deviation inside a glass slab; so cannot be used to study Dispersion
  • All of the dispersion that takes place at the first interface is exactly reversed at the second parallel surface, 'undoing' the effect of the first interface.
  • Dispersion occurs only in prism and not in glass slab
  • None of the above
Dispersion of light is caused due to :
  • intensity of light
  • density of medium
  • wavelength
  • none of the above
For the myopic eye, the defect is cured by
  • Convex lens
  • Concave lens
  • Cylindrical lens
  • Toric lens
A person can see objects clearly only upto a maximum distance of $$60\ cm$$. His eye defect, nature of the corrective lens and its focal length are respectively.
  • Myopia, convex, $$60\ cm$$
  • Myopia, concave, $$60\ cm$$
  • Hypermetropia, concave, $$60\ cm$$
  • Contract, convex, $$60\ cm$$
A far-sighted person has his near point $$50\ cm$$, find the power of lens he should use to see at $$25\ cm$$, clearly.
  • $$+1D$$
  • $$+2D$$
  • $$-2D$$
  • $$-1D$$
To read a poster on a wall, a person with defective vision needs to stand at a distance of $$0.4m$$ from the poster. A person with normal vision can read the poster from a distance of $$2.0m$$. Which one of the following lens may be used to correct the defective vision?

  • Cornea.
A mirage is observed when
  • Density of air decreases with increase of height
  • Density of air increases with increase of height
  • Refractive index of air decreases with increase of height
  • The Earth acts like a mirror.
