Physics - 1RT QP22

The document is a physics test paper containing 4 questions about light and optics. Question 1 has subparts about dispersion, electromagnetic spectrum, refraction through glass, and the effect of a prism on light. Question 2 covers lenses, image formation, and total internal reflection. Question 3 involves image formation by lenses and properties of convex and concave lenses. Question 4 defines critical angle and covers refraction, a microscope, and properties of a glass prism.
