The object is always placed to the left of the mirror. This implies that the light from the object falls on the mirror from the left-hand side. ii. All distances parallel to the principal axis are measured from the pole of the mirror. iii. All the distances measured to the right of the origin (along iv. Distances measured perpendicular to and above the principal axis (along + y-axis) are taken as positive. v. Distances measured perpendicular to and below the principal axis (along --y-axis) are taken as negative.

A ray of light from the object, parallel to the principal axis, after refraction from a convex lens, passes through the principal focus on the other side of the lens, as shown in Fig. 9.13 (a). In case of a concave lens, *Figure 9.13* *(a)* *(a)* *(b)* *(b)* ix. A ray of light passing through a principal focus, after refraction from a convex lens, will emerge parallel to the principal axis. This is shown in Fig. 9.14 (a). A ray of light appearing to meet at the principal focus of a concave lens, after refraction, will emerge parallel to the principal axis. This is shown in Fig.9.14 (b). x. A ray of light passing through the optical centre of a lens will emerge without any deviation. This is illustrated in Fig.9.15(a) and Fig.9.15 (b).  Science  Sign Convention for Spherical Lenses ------------------------------------ Lens Formula and Magnification ------------------------------ ### Magnification ### Example 9.3 ### Solution *v u f* 1 = 1 -- *u* --10 − 30 cm 3 ### Example 9.4 Science ### Solution 1 = 1 Power of a Lens --------------- Science - Mirror formula, *+* *=* [ 1] , gives the relationship between the object-distance (*u*), - The focal length of a spherical mirror is equal to half its radius of curvature. - The magnification produced by a spherical mirror is the ratio of the height of the image to the height of the object. - A light ray travelling obliquely from a denser medium to a rarer medium bends away from the normal. A light ray bends towards the normal when it travels obliquely from a rarer to a denser medium. - Light travels in vacuum with an enormous speed of 3×10^8^ m s^-1^. The speed of light is different in different media. - The refractive index of a transparent medium is the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to that in the medium. - In case of a rectangular glass slab, the refraction takes place at both air-glass interface and glass-air interface. The emergent ray is parallel to the direction of incident ray. - Lens formula, *--* *=* [ 1] , gives the relationship between the object-distance (*u*), - Power of a lens is the reciprocal of its focal length. The SI unit of power of a lens is c. the mirror is concave and the lens is convex. d. the mirror is convex, but the lens is concave. 5. No matter how far you stand from a mirror, your image appears erect. The mirror is likely to be a. only plane. b. only concave. c. only convex. d. either plane or convex. 6. Which of the following lenses would you prefer to use while reading small letters found in a dictionary? e. A convex lens of focal length 50 cm. f. A concave lens of focal length 50 cm. g. A convex lens of focal length 5 cm. h. A concave lens of focal length 5 cm. 7. We wish to obtain an erect image of an object, using a concave mirror of focal length 15 cm. What should be the range of distance of the object from the mirror? What is the nature of the image? Is the image larger or smaller than the object? Draw a ray diagram to show the image formation in this case. 8. Name the type of mirror used in the following situations. i. Headlights of a car. j. Side/rear-view mirror of a vehicle. k. Solar furnace. 9. One-half of a convex lens is covered with a black paper. Will this lens produce a complete image of the object? Verify your answer experimentally. Explain your observations. 10.
