[AFMC 1988]

A.

Retina

B.

Before retina  

C.

Behind the retina

D.

Image is not formed at 

SOLUTION

Solution : B

In short sightedness, the focal length of eye lens decreases, so image is formed before retina.

Question 6

The magnifying power of a microscope with an objective of 5 mm focal length is 400. The length of its tube is 20 cm. Then the focal length of the eye-piece is (consider that final image is formed at infinity)

A. 200 cm
B. 160 cm
C. 2.5 cm
D. 0.1 cm

SOLUTION

Solution : C

m=(Lfofe)DfofeLDfofe

400=20×250.5×fefe=2.5cm.

Question 7

In a compound microscope, the focal length of the objective and the eye lens are 2.5 cm and 5 cm respectively. An object is placed at 3.75 cm before the objective and image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision, then the distance between two lenses will be (i.e. length of the microscopic tube)  

A. 11.67 cm
B. 12.67 cm
C. 13.00 cm
D. 12.00 cm

SOLUTION

Solution : A

LD=vo+ue and for objective lens 1fo=1vo1uo
Putting the values with proper sigh convention.
1+2.5=1vo1(3.57)vo=7.5 cm
For eye lens  1fe=1ve1ue
1+5=1(25)1ueue=4. 16cm
|ue|=4.16 cm
Hence LD=7.5+4.16=11.67 cm

Question 8

In a compound microscope, the focal lengths of two lenses are 1.5 cm and 6.25 cm an object is placed at 2 cm form objective and the final image is formed at 25 cm from eye lens. The distance between the two lenses is
 

A. 6.00 cm
B. 7.75 cm
C. 9.25 cm
D. 11.00 cm

SOLUTION

Solution : D

It is given that f0=1.5cm,fe=6.25cm,u0=2cm
When final image is formed at least distance of distinct vision, length of the tube LD=u0f0u0f0+feDfe+D
LD=2×1.521.5+6.25×256.25+25=11cm.

Question 9

The focal lengths of the objective and eye-lens of a microscope are 1 cm and 5 cm respectively. If the magnifying power for the relaxed eye is 45, then the length of the tube is

A. 30 cm
B. 25 cm
C. 15 cm
D. 12 cm
 

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Given that f0=1cm,fe=5cm,m=45
By using m=(Lf0fe)f0fe45=(L15)×251×5L=15cm 

Question 10

A compound microscope has a magnifying power 30. The focal length of its eye-piece is 5 cm. Assuming the final image to be at the least distance of distinct vision. The magnification produced by the objective will be

A. +5
B. -5
C. +6
D. -6

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Magnification produced by compound microscope m=m0×me
where m0=? and me=(1+Dfe)=1+255=630=m0×6m0=5

Question 11

If an object subtend angle of 2 at eye when seen through telescope having objective and eyepiece of focal length f0=60cm and fe=5cm respectively then angle subtend by image at eye piece will be   

A. 16
B. 50
C. 24
D. 10

SOLUTION

Solution : C

By using βα=f0feβ2β=24

Question 12

The focal lengths of the lenses of an astronomical telescope are 50 cm and 5 cm. The length of the telescope when the image is formed at the least distance of distinct vision is 

A. 45 cm 
B. 55 cm
C. 2756cm
D. 3256cm

SOLUTION

Solution : D

The length of the telescope, LD=f0+ue, as the objective forms the image at its focus, as the rays are from infinity, and this image acts as the object for the eyepiece. 
Now, using lens formula, and using the fact that the eyepiece forms image at near point, that is v=D(=25cm):
1f=1v1u.
Applying sign convention, 1ue=1D1fe.
Or, considering only the modulus, ue=feDfe+D.
Therefore, LD=f0+ue=f0+feDfe+D=50+5×25(5+25)=3256cm.

Question 13

The diameter of the moon is 3.5×103km and its distance from the earth is 3.8×105km. If it is seen through a telescope whose focal length for objective and eye lens are 4 m and 10 cm respectively, then the angle subtended by the image of the moon on the eye will be approximately 

A. 15
B. 20
C. 30
D. 35

SOLUTION

Solution : B

The angle subtended by the moon on the objective of telescope α=3.5×1033.8×105=3.53.8×102rad.
Let, the angle subtended by the image of the moon on the eye be β. Also, the angle subtended by the moon on the earth, as well as the eye will be very nearly the same.
Therefore m=f0fe=βα40010=βαβ=40αβ=40×3.5×1033.8×105×180π=20 (approx).

Question 14

For astronomical telescope
i) focal length of its objective should be larger than that of eyepiece

C. ii, iii, and iv are true
D. i and iii are true
