1 MARKER OBJECTIVE QUESTIONS - ANSWERS

1. Focal length of plane mirror is:


Answer: (b) Zero
Reason: A plane mirror has no curvature, so its focal length is considered to be zero.

2. Image formed by plane mirror is:


Answer: (c) Virtual and erect
Reason: Plane mirrors always produce virtual, erect, and same-sized images.

3. A concave mirror gives real, inverted and same size image if the object is placed:
Answer: (c) At C (Center of Curvature)
Reason: At C, image is real, inverted, and same size as object.

4. Power of the lens is +40 D, its focal length is:


Answer: (a) 0.025 m or 2.5 cm
Reason: Focal length f = 100 / P = 100 / 40 = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

5. A concave mirror gives virtual, erect and enlarged image of the object. The position of the object is:
Answer: (c) Between P and F
Reason: This position gives a virtual, erect, and magnified image.

6. In optics and object which has higher refractive index is called:


Answer: (b) Optically denser
Reason: A medium with higher refractive index is said to be optically denser.

7. The optical phenomena, twinkling of stars, is due to:


Answer: (c) Atmospheric refraction
Reason: Due to varying air density, light bends unpredictably, causing twinkling.
