Question 1.


The diameter of the eye-ball of a normal eye is about 2.5 cm. The power of the eye lens varies from


  1.     2 D to 10 D
  2.     40 D to 32 D
  3.     9 D to 8 D
  4.     44 D to 40 D
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 44 D to 40 D
:
D
An eye sees distant objects with full relaxation so 12.5×1021=1f or
P=1f=125×102=40D
An eye sees an object at 25 cm with strain so 12.5×102125×102=1forP=1f=40+4=44D
Question 2.


A man can see clearly up to 3 metres. Prescribe a lens for his spectacles so that he can see clearly up to 12 metres
 


  1.     34D
  2.     3D
  3.     14D
  4.     -4 D
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 14D
:
C
By using f=xyxyf=3×12312=4m. Hence power P=1f=14D
Question 3.


A man can see the objects up to a distance of one metre from his eyes. For correcting his eyesight so that he can see an object at infinity, he requires a lens whose power is
 


  1.     +0.5 D
  2.     +1.0 D
  3.     +2.0 D
  4.     –1.0 D
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> –1.0 D
:
D
Hey, like you just learned, for correcting the myopic eye, the concave corrective lens should form the image for an object at infinity at the far point of the defective eye.
Applying sign convention, f = –(far point of myopic eye) = – 100 cm.  So power of the lens P=100f=100100=1D
Question 4.


For a normal eye, the least distance of distinct vision is  


 


[CPMT 1984]


  1.     0.25 m
  2.     0.50 m  
  3.     25 m  
  4.     Infinite
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 0.25 m
:
A

Remember this is the distance nearer to which a normal eye can't see properly, on average.


Question 5.


Image formed on the retina is  


  1.     Real and inverted  
  2.     Virtual and erect  
  3.     Real and erect  
  4.     Virtual and inverted
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Real and inverted  
:
A

Image formed at retina is real and inverted.


Question 6.


A compound microscope is used to enlarge an object kept at a distance 0.03m from it’s objective which consists of several convex lenses in contact and has focal length 0.02m. If a lens of focal length 0.1m is removed from the objective, then by what distance the eye-piece of the microscope must be moved to refocus the image


  1.     2.5 cm 
  2.     6 cm
  3.     15 cm 
  4.     9 cm 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 9 cm 
:
D
If initially the objective (focal length F0) forms the image at distance v0 then v0=u0f0u0f0=3×232=6cm
Now as in case of lenses in contact  1F0=1f1+1f2+1f3+.....=1f1+1F0{where1F0=1f2+1f3+...}
So if one of the lens is removed, the focal length of the remaining lens system
1F0=1F01f1=12110F0=2.5cm
This lens will form the image of same object at a distance v0 such that v0=u0F0u0F0=3×2.5(32.5)=15cm
So to refocus the image, eye-piece must be moved by the same distance through which the image formed by the objective has shifted i.e. 15 – 6 = 9 cm.
 
Question 7.


Magnifying power of a simple microscope is (when final image is formed at D = 25 cm from eye)


[MP PET 1996; BVP 2003]


  1.     Df
  2.     1+Df
  3.     1+fD
  4.     1Df
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 1+Df
:
B
This is the case when image is formed at near point.
Question 8.


The magnifying power of a simple microscope can be increased, if we use eye-piece of


  1.     Higher focal length 
  2.     Smaller focal length 
  3.     Higher diameter 
  4.     Smaller diameter   
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Smaller focal length 
:
B

m=1+D/f. So, smaller the focal length, higher the magnifying power.


Question 9.


For which of the following colour, the magnifying power of a microscope will be maximum  


  1.     White colour  
  2.     Red colour  
  3.     Violet colour  
  4.     Yellow colour  
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Violet colour  
:
C

For Which Of The Following Colour, The Magnifying Power Of A...


Question 10.


If the focal length of the objective lens and the eye lens are 4 mm and 25 mm respectively in a compound microscope. The length of the tube is 16 cm. Find its magnifying power for relaxed eye position


  1.     32.75 
  2.     327.5 
  3.     0.3275
  4.     None of the above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 327.5 
:
B
The image distance for the objective, in this case, is Lf0fe as the focal lengths are not negligible compared to the length of the telescope.
By using m=(Lf0fe)Df0fe
=(160.42.5)×250.4×2.5=327.5
