Class 10 Phy Assignment

The document contains a series of objective type questions, very short answer questions, assertion and reason questions, case study based questions, short questions, and long answer questions related to the human eye, light, and optics. It covers topics such as the properties of light, vision defects, and the behavior of light through prisms. The questions are designed to test knowledge on the functioning of the human eye, light scattering, and the dispersion of light.

A. Prism B. Gless slab C. Prism D. Prism


10. At noon the sun
appears white as

(a) Light is least scattered


(b) all the colours of the white light are scattered away
(c) blue colour is scattered the most

VERY SHORT ANSWER OUESTIONS


11.Why is a normal eye not able to see clearly the objects placed closer than 25cm?
12. Give an example in nature which shows that
sunlight may be made of different colours.
13. Define the term power of accommodation.
14. Mention the role of
optic nerve in the human eye.

ASSERTION AND REASON QUESTIONS


15. Assertion (A) White light is
:
dispersed into its seven-colour components by a pri
Reason (R) : Different colours of light bend through different
angles with respect to the
incident ray as they pass through a prism.
16. Assertion (A): A normal human
eye can clearly see all the objects certain beyond
minimum distance.
Reason (R) : The human eye has capacity of adjusting the focal length of eye lens.
17. Assertion(A): Hypermetropia is the defect of the eye in which only farther objects are
seen.

Reason (R): Hypermetropia is corrected by using converging lens.


18. Assertion(A): Danger signals are made of red colour.
Reason (R) : Velocity of red light in air is maximum, so signals are visible even in dark.

CASE STYDY BASED QUESTIONS


CASE The spreading of light by the air molecules is called scattering of light. The light
having least wavelength scatters more. The sun appears red at sunrise and sunset,
appearance of blue sky it is due to the scattering of light. The colour of the scattered light
depends on the size of particles. The smaller the molecules in the atmosphere scatter
smaller wavelengths of light. The amount of scattering of light depends on the

3
wavelength of light. When light from sun enters the earth's atmosphere, it gets scattered
by the dust particles and air molecules present in the atmosphere. The path of sunlight
entering in the dark room through a fine hole is seen because of scattering of the sun light
by the dust particles present in its path inside the room.
19. At the time of sunrise and sunset, the light from sun has to travel.
(a) longest distance of atmosphere
(b) shortest distance of atmosphere
(c) both (a) and (b)
(d) can't say
20. The colour of sky appears blue, it is due to the
(a) refraction of light through the atmosphere
(b) dispersion of light by air molecules
() scattering of light by air molecules
(d) all of these.
21. The danger signs made red in colour, because
(a) the red light can be seen from farthest distance
(b) both (a) and (b)

c) the
scattering of red light is least
(d) none of these

SHORT QUESTIONS
22. Is the position of a star as seen by us its true position? Justify your answer.
23. Why do we see a rainbow in the sky only after rainfal?
24. Explain the phenomenon of dispersion of white light through a glass prism, using suitable 4
ray diagram.
25. A student is not able to see clearly the questions written on the blackboard placed at a
distance of 5 m from him.Name the defect of vision he is suffering from. With the help of
the labelled diagram explain in brief how this defect can be corrected? (CBSE 2017)

26. What is Presbyopia? State the cause of presbyopia. How is presbyopia of a person

corrected?(CBSE 2011,2016)
27. State the cause of dispersion of white light by glass prism. How did Newton, using two identical
glass prisms show that white light is made of seven colours? Draw a ray diagram to show the
path of a narow beam of white light, through combination of two identical prisms (where one of
the prism is in an inverted position with respect to the other), when it is allowed to fall obliquely
on one of the face of the first prism of the combination(CBSE 2016).
LONGANSWER QUESTIONS
28. (a) A student is unable to see clearly the words written on the black board placed at a

State the possible causes of this defect and explain the method of correcting it.
(b) Why do stars twinkle? Explain. (CBSE 2017-18)
29. A person suffering from an eyesight defect has a far point at 40 cm and a near the point at 25 cm.
The person uses a lens to see far away object. Find the near point of the person while wearing this
lens.

30. (a)A person is suffering from both myopia and hypermetropia.


() What kind of lenses can correct this defect?
(i) How are these lenses prepared?
(b) A person needs a lens of power +3 D for correcting his near vision and -3 D for correcting his
distant vision. Calculate the focal lengths of the lenses required to correct these defects. (2020)
