13. A ray of light, incident obliquely on a face of a rectangular glass slab placed in air,
emerges from the opposite face parallel to the incident ray. State two factors on which the
lateral displacement of the emergent ray depends. [Foreign]
Answer. Lateral displacement depends on the:

1. angle of incidence,
2. thickness of slab, and
3. refractive index of the material. (any two)

SHORT ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS [II] [3 Marks] – Year 2008

14. An object 2 cm in size is placed 30 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 15 cm.
At what distance from the mirror should a screen be placed in order to obtain a sharp image?
What will be the nature and the size of the image formed? Draw a ray diagram to show the
formation of the image in this case. [Delhi(C)]
Answer.

15. An object 2 cm high is placed at a distance of 64 cm from a white screen. On placing a

convex lens at a distance of 32 cm from the object it is found that a distinct image of the
object is formed on the screen. What is the focal length of the convex lens and size of the
image formed on the screen? Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image in this
position of the object with respect to the lens. [Delhi(C)]
Answer. Since, object-screen distance is double of object-lens separation, the object is at a distance of 2f
from the lens and the image should be of the same size of the object.

16. A convex lens has a focal length of 10 cm. At what distance from the lens should the
object be placed so that it forms a real and inverted image 20 cm away from the lens? What
would be the size of the image formed if the object is 2 cm high? With the help of a ray
diagram show the formation of the image by the lens in this case. [All India (C)]
Answer.
