This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
If there was no cut, then the object would have been at a height of 0.5 cm from the principal axis OO'.
Applying lens formula, we have
1/v-1/u=1/f Z
=
V= 50cm
Magnification m = v/u= 50/-50=-1
So coordinates of image are (50cm, -1cm)

Explanation- p=100W
1= 1nm
2= 500nm
Also n1and n2 represent number of photon of x-rays and visible light emitted from the two sources per sec
E/t=P=n1hc/ 1=n2hc/ 2
So n1/ 1 = n2/ 2
So n1/n2= 1/500

Refering to the figure, AM is the direction of incidence ray before liquid is filled. After liquid is filled in, BM is the direction of the incident ray. Refracted ray in both cases is same as that along AM

N= 900, OM= a, CB = NB= a-R, AN= a+R

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Since, the object distance is u. Let us consider the two ends of the object be at distance
So u1= u+L/2 and u2=u+L/2 respectively so that|u1- u2| =L .
Let the image of the two
ends be formed at v1 and v2, respectively so that the image length would be
L'= |v1-v2|……… (1)
Applying mirror formula 1/v+1/u=1/f or v= fu/u-f
On solving two positions of image v1= v2=
For length substituting in equation 1
L'= |v1-v2|=
The objects is short and kept away from focus we have
<< (
Hence L'=
This is required expression.

Explanation- In photoelectric effect, we can observe that most electrons get scattered into the metal by absorbing a photon.Thus, all the electrons that absorb a photon doesn't come out as photoelectron. Only a few come out of metal whose energy becomes greater than the work function of metal.

Prism for is given by
Given that Dm= A
After substituting the values, =
On solving, = 2 cos A/2
So cos A/2 =
So A= 600 so this is the required prism angle

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
apparent depth = real depth / refractive index
Since, the image formed by Medium1, O2 act as an object for Medium2.
If seen from µ3 ,the apparent depth is O2.
Similarly, the image formed by Medium2, O2 act as an object for Medium3
O2= ( )
= (
Seen from outside the apparent height is
O3 = ( =
= )
This is the expression for required depth.

Explanation- According to first statement, when the materials which absorb photons of shorter wavelength has the energy of the incident photon on the material is high and the energy ofemitted photon is low when it has a longer wavelength.
But in second statement, the energy of the incident photon is low for the substances which has to absorb photons of larger wavelength and energy of emitted photon is high to emit light of shorter wavelength. This means in this statement material has to supply the energy for the emission of photons.But this is not possible for a s

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
m=v/u = D/f
So m = 25/10 = 2.5= 0.025m
P= 1/0.025= 40D
This is the required power of lens.
