The image of a white object in with light formed by a lens is usually colored and blurred. This defect of image is called chromatic aberration and arises due to the fact that focal length of a lens is different for different colours. As `R` .`I`. `mu` of lens is maximum for violet while minimum for red, violet is focused nearest to the lens while red farthest from it as shown in figure. As a result of this, in case of convergent lens if a screen is placed at `F_(v)` center of the image will be violet and focused while sides are red and blurred. While at `F_(R)` , reverse is the case, `i.e` ., center will be red and focused while sides violet and blurred. The differece between `f_(v)` and `f_(R)` is a measure of the longitudinal chromatic aberration `(L.C.A),i.e.,` `L.C.A.=f_(R)-f_(v)=-df` with `df=f_(v)-f_(R)` ...........`(1)` However, as for a single lens, `(1)/(f)=(mu-1)[(1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2))]` .............`(2)` `rArr -(df)/(f^(2))=dmu[(1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2))]` ...............`(3)` Dividing E1n. `(3)` by `(2)` : `-(df)/(f)=(dmu)/((mu-1))=omega, [omega=(dmu)/((mu-1))] "dispersive power" , .........(4)` And hence, from Eqns. `(1)` and `(4)` , `L.C.A.=-df=omegaf` Now, as for a single lens neither `f` nor `omega` zero, we cannot have a single lens free from chromatic aberration. Condition of Achromatism : In case of two thin lenses in contact `(1)/(F)=(1)/(F_(1))+(1)/(F_(2)) i.c,. -(dF)/(F^(2))=(df_(1))/(f_(1)^(2))-(df_(2))/(f_(2)^(2))` The combination will be free from chromatic aberration if `dF=0` `i.e., (df_(1))/(f_(1)^(2))+(df_(2))/(f_(2)^(2))=0` which with the help of Eqn. `(4)` reduces to `(omega_(1)f_(1))/(f_(1)^(2))+(omega_(2)f_(2))/(f_(2)^(2))=0 , i.e., (omega_(1))/(f_(1))+(omega_(2))/(f_(2))=0 ........(5)` This condition is called condition of achromatism (for two thin lenses in contact ) and the lens combination which satisfies this condition is called achromatic lems, from this condition, `i.e.,` form Eqn. `(5)` it is clear the in case of achromatic doublet : Since, if `omega_(1)=omega_(2), (1)/(f_(1))+(1)/(f_(2))=0 i.e., (1)/(F)=0` or `F=infty` `i.e.,` combination will not behave as a lens, but as a plane glass plate. `(2)` As `omega_(1)` and `omega_(2)` are positive quantities, for equation `(5)` to hold, `f_(1)` and `f_(2)` must be of opposite nature, `i.e.,` if one of the lenses is converging the other must be diverging. `(3)` If the achromatic combination is convergent, `f_(C)ltf_(D)` and as `(f_(C))/(f_(d))=(omega_(C))/(omega_(D)), omega_(C)ltomega_(d)` `i.e.,` in a convergent achromatic doublet, convex lens has lesses focal legth and dispersive power than the divergent one. The dispersive power of crown and fint glasses are `0.02` and `0.04` respectively. An achromtic converging lens of focal length `40 cm` is made by keeping two lenses, one of crown glass and the other of flint glass, in contact with each other. The focal lengths of the two lenses are :A. `20 cm and 40 cm`B. `20 cm and -40 cm`C. `-20 cm and 40 cm`D. `10 cm and -20 cm `

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`(omega_(1))/(f_(1))+(omega_(2))/(f_(2))=0`
`rArr (omega_(1))/(omega_(2))=(f_(1))/(f_(2))=(1)/(2) ……….(1)`
`rArr (1)/(F)=(1)/(f_(1))+(1)/(f_(2))=(1)/(4) ………..(2)`
After solving `(1)` &`(2)`
`f_(1)=20 cm`
`f_(2)=-40 cm` .

A convex lens made up of glass of refractive index `1.5` is dippedin turn (i) in a medium of refractive index `1.65` (ii) in a medium of refractive index `1.33` (a) Will it behave as converging or diverging lens in the two cases ? (b) How will its focal length changes in the two media ?

Answer» Here,`.^(a)mu_(g)=1.5`
Let `f_(air)` be the focal length of the lens in air, Then,
`(1)/(f_(air))(.^(a)mu_(g)-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))` or `((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))=(1)/(f_(air)(.^(a)mu_(g)-1))`
`=(1)/(f_(air)(1.5-1))` or `((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))=(2)/(f_(air)) .....(i)`
(i) When lens is dipped in medium `A`
Here, `.^(a)mu_(A)=1.65`
Let `f_(A)` be the focal length of the lens, when dipped in medium `A`. Then,
`(1)/(f_(A))(.^(A)mu_(g)-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))=((.^(a)mu_(g))/(.^(a)mu_(A))-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`
Using the equation `(i)`, we have
`(1)/(f_(A))((1.5)/(1.65)-1)xx(1)/(f_(air))=-(1)/(5.5f_(air))`
or `f_(A)=-5.5f_(air)`
As the sign of `f_(A)` is opposite to that of `f_(air)` the lens will behave as a diverging lens.
(ii) When lens is dipped in medium `B` :
Here, `.^(a)mu_(B)=1.33`
Let `f_(B)` be the focal length of the lens, when dipped in medium `B`. Then,
`(1)/(f_(B))(.^(B)mu_(g)-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))=((.^(a)mu_(g))/(.^(a)mu_(B))-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`
Using the equation `(i)`, we have
`(1)/(f_(B))((1.5)/(1.33)-1)xx(2)/(f_(air))=(0.34)/(1.33f_(air))`
As the sign of `f_(B)` is same as that of `f_(air)` the lens will behave as a converging lens.

A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index `n_(1)``=1.4` is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius R at one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index `n_(2)``=1.5`, as shown in the figure. Rays of light parallel to the axis of the cylinder traversing through the film from air to glass get focused at distance `f_(1)` from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance `f_(2)` from the film, Then ` A. `|f_(1)|=3R`B. `|f_(1)|=2.8R`C. `|f_(2)|=2R`D. `|f_(2)|=1.4R

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`(1)/(f_(film))=(n_(1)-1)((1)/(R)-(1)/(R)) rArr f_(film)=infty` (inf inite)
`therefor` No effect of presence of film.
For Air to glass
Using single spherical Refraction :-
`(n_(2))/(v)-(1)/(u)=(n_(2)-1)/(R)`
`(1.5)/(v)-(1)/(infty)=(1.5-1)/(R) rArr v=3R`
`therefore f_(1)=3R`
For Glass to Air `( :-)/`
`(1)/(v)-(n_(2))(u)=(1-n_(2))/(-R)`
`rArr (1)/(v)-(1.5)/(infty)=(1-1.5)/(-R)`
`rArr v=2R`
`therefore f_(2)=2R`

A ray of light is incident on a surface in a direction given by vector `A=2i-2j+k`. The normal to that surface passing through the point of incidence is along the vector `N=j-2k`. The unit vector in the direction of reflected ray is given by `R=aj+bj+ck`. Find three equations in terms of `a,b,c` using which we can find the values of `a,b,& c`

Answer» Correct Answer - `a^(2)+b^(2) + c^(2) =1;3a + 4b +2c = ; b - 2c = 4//3`
`vec(A)=2hat(i)-2hat(j)+hat(k), vec(N)-hat(j)-2hat(k) vec(R)=ahat(i)+bhat(j)+chat(k) , thereforevec(R)` is a unit vector
`thereforea^(2)+b^(2)+c^(2)=1 .......(1)`
For all these vectors to be in a plane.
`(vec(A)xxvec(N)).vec(R)=0rArr[3hat(i)+4hat(j)+2hat(k)].[ahat(i)+bhat(j)+chat(k)]=0`
`rArr 3a+4b+2c=0..............(2)`
Now `vec(A).vec(N)=|vec(A)||vec(N)| cos (pi-i)`
and `vec(R).vec(N)=|vec(R)||vec(N)| cos i`
`therefore(vec(A).vec(N))/(|vec(A)||vec(N)|)=(-vec(R).vec(N))/(|vec(R)||vec(N|))rArr(-2-2)/(3)=(-(b-2c))/(1)rArrb-2c=(4)/(3).........(3)`
The equation `(1),(2)` and `(3)` are the required relations.

A point object is placed on principal axis of a concave mirror of radius of curvature `20 cm` at a distance `31 cm` from poll of the mirror. `A` glass slab of thikness `3 cm` and refractive index `1.5` is placed between object and mirror as shown in the figure. Find the distance (in `cm`) of final image formed by the system from the mirror.

Answer» Correct Answer - 16
Apprent shift in position of the object due to refraction through the slab `=d(1-(1)/(mu_(rel)))`
`=3(1-(1)/(3/2))=1 cm ` towards the mirror,
Now, for reflection from the mirror,
`u=-30 cm f=-(R)/(2)=-10 cm`
`therefore` `(1)/(v)=(1)/(f)-(1)/(u)` gives `(1)/(v)=-(1)/(10)-(1)/((-30))` `therefore v=-15 cm`
Thus is formed `15 cm` , right of the mirror but because of second refraction through the slab the image is shifted `1 cm` away from the mirror. Hence final image is formed at a distance `16 cm` away from mirror.

In the shown figure `M_(1)` and `M_(2)` are two concave mirrors of the same focal length `10 cm` . `AB` and `CD` are their pricipal axes respectively. `A` point object `O` is kept on the line `AB` at a distance `15 cm` from `M_(1)` . The distance between the mirror is `20 cm` . Considering two successive reflections first on `M_(1)` and then on `M_(2)` . The distance of final image from the line `AB` is: A. `3 cm`B. `1.5 cm`C. `4.5 cm`D. `1 cm`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
For `M_(1)`
`v=(uf)/(u-f) =(-15xx(-10))/(-15-(-10))=-30 cm`
For `M_(2) u=10 cm`
`therefore v=(10xx(-10))/(10-(-10))=-5 cm`
magnification `m=(-v)/(u)=-((-5)/(10))=(1)/(2)`
so, distance of image from `CD=(1)/(2)xx3=(3)/(2) cm`
`therefore` distance of image from `AB=3-(3)/(2)=(3)/(2) cm`

Find the position of the final image after three successive reflections taking the first reflection on `m_(1)` .

Answer» `1^(st)` reflection at `m_(1)`
`u = -15cm`
`f = -10cm`
`(1)/(v) + (1)/(u) = (1)/(f) = (-3+2)/(30) = -(1)/(30)`
`v = -30cm`
`2^(nd)` reflection at plane mirror:
`u = 5cm`
`v = -5cm`
For `III` reflection on curved mirror again:
`u = -20cm`
`v = (uf)/(u-f) = ((-20)xx(-10))/(-20+10) = (200)/(-10) = 20cm`
Image is `20cm` right of `m_(1)`

Find the position of the final image after three successive reflections taking the first reflection on `m_(1)` .

Answer» `I` reflection:
Forcus of mirror `= -10cm rArr u = -15 cm` Applying mirror formula:
`(1)/(v) + (1)/(u) = (1)/(f) rArr v = -30cm`
For `II` reflection on plane mirror:
`u = -10 cm`
`:. V = 10cm`
For `III` reflection on curved mirror again:
`u = -50cm`
`f = -10cm`
Applying mirror formula:
`(1)/(v) + (1)/(u) = (1)/(f)`
`v = -12.5cm`

An object of height `h_(0)=1 cm` is moved along principal axis of a convex lens of focal length `f=10 cm`. Figure shows variation of magnitude of height of image with image distance `(v)` . Find `v_(2)-v_(1)` in `cm` .

Answer» Correct Answer - 10
`(h_(i))/(h_(0))=(f-v)/(f) rArrh_(i)=-(v)/(f)h_(0)+h_(0)rArr |h_(i)|=-(v)/(f)h_(0)+h_(0)-inftylevlef`
`|h_(i)|=(v)/(f)h_(0)-h_(0) flevle-infty`
So `h_(2)=h_(2)=1 cm`
From second eq. `v_(2)=2f`
Or When `vrarr0,urarr0&h_(i)rarrh_(0)soh_(2)=h_(0)=1 cm` image of same height is obtained when `v=2f` so `v_(2)=2f`

A thin convex lens made from crown glass `(mu = 3//2)` has focal length `f`. When it is measured in two different liquids having refractive indiced `4//3` and `5//3`, it has the focal length `f_(1)` and `f_(2)` respectively. The correct ralation between the focal lengths isA. `f_(1)=f_(2)ltf`B. `f_(1)gtf` and `f_(2)` becomes negativeC. `f_(2)gtf` and `f_(1)` becomes negativeD. `f_(1)` and `f_(2)` both become negative

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C::D
`(1)/(f)=((3)/(2)-1)((1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`
`(1)/(f)=(1)/(2x)rArr f=2x` here `((1)/(x)=(1)/(R_(1))-(1)/(R_(2)))`
`(1)/(f_(1))=((3//2)/(4//3)-1)(1)/(x)`
`(1)/(f_(2))=((3//2)/(5//3)-1)((1)/(x)): rArr f_(2)` is iegative
`(1)/(f_(1))=(1)/(8x)=(1)/(4(2x))=(1)/(4f)`
`rArr f_(1)=4f`
Analytically, If a lense is inserted in a denser sourrounding the sing of focal length changes changes and if lens is inserted in a rarer sourrounding, the sign of focal length remain same.
If lense is inserted in rarer medium the focal length increases.
