Question 9 of 20

10. Four students A, B, C and D did their experiment on finding the focal length of convex lens by obtaining the image of a distant object as follows:
Student A used the window grill in the laboratory as the object and a white paper sheet held in hand, as the screen.
Student B used a distant tree in absence of sunlight as the object, and a white thick board held on a stand, as the screen.
Student C used a well illuminated laboratory window grill as the object and a white paper sheet held on a stand as the screen.
Student D used a well illuminated distant tree as the object and a white thick board held on a stand, as the screen.
Arrange these techniques in order of decreasing accuracy in measurement.

Question 17 of 20

18. To determine the focal length of convex lens by obtaining a sharp image of a distant object we generally follow the following steps which are not in proper sequence.

(a) Hold the lens between the object and the screen

(b) Measure the distance between the lens and the screen

(c) Select a well lit distant object

(d) Adjust the position of the lens to form a sharp image

The correct sequence will be:

c, a, d, b

c, d, b, a

a, c, d, b

c, d, a, b
