An optical bench has a $1.5 m$ long scale having four equal divisions in each $cm$. While measuring the focal length of a convex lens,the lens is kept at the $75 cm$ mark of the scale and the object pin is kept at the $45 cm$ mark. The image of the object pin on the other side of the lens overlaps with the image pin that is kept at the $135 cm$ mark. In this experiment,the percentage error in the measurement of the focal length of the lens is. . . . .

An optical arrangement consists of two concave mirrors $M_1$ and $M_2$,and a convex lens $L$ with a common principal axis,as shown in the figure. The focal length of $L$ is $10 \text{ cm}$. The radii of curvature of $M_1$ and $M_2$ are $20 \text{ cm}$ and $24 \text{ cm}$,respectively. The distance between $L$ and $M_2$ is $20 \text{ cm}$. $A$ point object $S$ is placed at the mid-point between $L$ and $M_2$ on the axis. When the distance between $L$ and $M_1$ is $n/7 \text{ cm}$,one of the images coincides with $S$. The value of $n$ is. . . .

Assertion : $A$ red object appears dark in the yellow light.
Reason : The red colour is scattered less.

$A$ concave mirror and a converging lens (glass with $\mu = 1.5$) both have a focal length of $3 \, cm$ when in air. When they are in water $\left( \mu = \frac{4}{3} \right)$,what are their new focal lengths?

When sunlight falls normally on Earth,a luminous flux density (illuminance) of $1.57 \times 10^5 \; lm/m^2$ is produced on Earth. If the distance of Earth from the Sun is $1.5 \times 10^8 \; km$,what is the total luminous flux emitted by the Sun?

The dispersive power of the material of a lens of focal length $20 \; cm$ is $0.08$. The longitudinal chromatic aberration of the lens is ...... $cm$.
