  • #5-c-iii
    If the tension acting on the string is T, then what is the relationship between T and effort E?
    Ans : T = E.
  • #5-c-iv
    If the free end of the string moves through a distance x, find the distance by which the

    load is raised.
    Ans : The distance travelled by load is half the distance moved by effort = ``\frac { x }{ 2 }`` .


  • #6
  • #6-a
    How does the angle of deviation formed by a prism change with the increase in the angle of

    incidence? Draw a graph showing the variation in the angle of deviation with the angle of incidence at a prism surface.

    [3]
    Ans : As the. angle of incidence increases the angle of deviation decreases becomes minimum and then increases.

    The graph is as shown :


  • #6-b
    A virtual, diminished image is formed when an object is placed between the optical centre and the principal focus of a lens.
  • #6-b-i
    Name the type of lens which forms the above image.
    Ans : Concave lens.
  • #6-b-ii
    Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image with the above stated characteristics.

    [3]
    Ans : The ray diagram is as shown :


  • #6-c
    An object is placed at a distance 24 cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 8 cm.
    Ans : Given u = - 24 cm, f= + 8 cm, v = ?
  • #6-c-i
    What is the nature of the image so formed ?
    Ans : Real, inverted and diminished.
  • #6-c-ii
    Calculate the distance of the image from the lens.
    Ans : Using the lens formula


  • #6-c-iii
    Calculate the magnification of the image.

    [4]
    Ans : Using the expression m =``\frac { v }{ u }`` = ``\frac { 12 }{ -24 }`` = ``\frac { 1 }{ 2 }`` .
  • #7
  • #7-a
    It is observed that during march-past we hear a base drum distinctly from a distance compared to the side drums.
  • #7-a-i
    Name the characteristic of sound associated with the above observation.
    Ans : Intensity of sound.
  • #7-a-ii
    Give a reason for the above observation.

    [3]
    Ans : This is because the amplitude of vibration of a base drum is far greater than the amplitude of vibration of the side drum.
