ASSERTION REASON QUESTIONS:ANSWER THE QUESTIONS SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE OPTIONS

GIVEN BELOW:
a).both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
b).both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
c).A is true but R is false
d).A is false but R is true.
Q14).ASSERTION(A):White light is dispersed into its seven colour components by a prism.
REASON(R):Different colours of light bend through different angles with respect to the incident ray as
they pass through a prism
Q15).ASSERTION(A):Danger signals are made of red colour.
REASON(R):Velocity of red light in air is maximum,so signals are visible even in dark.
CASE STUDY QUESTION:
The spherical mirror forms different types of images when the object is placed at different
locations.When the image is formed on screen,the image is real and when the image does not form on
screen the image is virtual.When two reflected rays meet actually the image is real and when they
appear to meet,the image is virtual.
A concave mirror always forms a real and inverted image for different positions of the object.But if the
object is placed between the focus and pole,the image formed is virtual and erect.
A convex mirror always forms a virtual,erect and diminished image.A concave mirror is used as doctors
head mirror to focus on body parts like eyes,ears,nose etc.to be examined because it can form erect and
magnified imageof the object.The convex mirror is used as a rear view mirrors in automobiles because it
can form a small and erect image of the object.
Q16).When an object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror the image formed is
a).larger than the object
b).smaller than the object
c).same size as that of the object
d).highly enlarged
Q17).No matter how far you stand from a mirror,your image appears erect.The mirror is likely to be
a).plane
b).concave
c).convex
d).either plane or convex
Q18).A child is standing in front of a magic mirror.She finds the image of her head bigger,the middle
portion of her body of the same size and that of the legs smaller.The following is the order of
combinations for the magic mirror from the top.
a).plane,convex and concave
b).convex,concave and plane
c).concave,plane and convex
d).convex,plane and concave
Q19).To get an image larger than the object,one can use
a).convex mirror but not a concave mirror
b).a concave mirror but not a convex mirror
c).either a convex mirror or a concave mirror.
d).a plane mirror
Q20).A Convex mirror has wider field of view because
a).the image formed is much smaller than the object and a large number of images can be seen
b).the images formed is much closer to the mirror
c).both a and b
d).none of these
