30°
45°
60°
90°
Correct answer is A
Formula for number of images = \(\frac{360}{n} - 1\)
where n is the angle of inclination.
Given the number of images = 11, we have
\(\frac{360}{n} - 1 = 11\)
\(\frac{360}{n} = 12\)
\(n = \frac{360}{12} =30°\)
The lens illustrated above can best be described as a
converging meniscus
plano-convex
diverging meniscus
bi-convex
Correct answer is B
The diagram is that of a plano-convex lens; a type of converging lens.
Rainbow formation is a natural phenomenon illustrating that white light
splits into three components after rainfall
is dispersed by glass prisms
splits into its constituent colours before rainfall
is dispersed into its constituent colours after rainfall
Correct answer is D
A rainbow is caused by the dispersion of sunlight by tiny water droplets present in the atmosphere, which can be seen after the rain.
Which of the following electromagnetic waves is most energetic?
Radio waves
X-ray
Gamma rays
Ultra-violet rays
Correct answer is C
The gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and therefore, impart the highest photon energy.
