$A$ myopic person has been using spectacles of power $-1.00\, D$ for clear vision. During old age,he also needs to use separate reading glasses of power $+2.00\, D$. Explain what may have happened to his eyesight?

State the cause of dispersion when white light enters a glass prism. Explain with a diagram.

How is the eye lens held in its position?

What is the other name of long-sightedness?

$A$ beam of white light falling on a glass prism gets split up into seven colours marked $1$ to $7$ as shown in the diagram.
$(a)$ The colours at positions marked $3$ and $5$ are similar to the colour of the sky and the colour of gold metal respectively. Is the above statement made by the student correct or incorrect? Justify.
$(b)$ Which of the above shown positions corresponds approximately to the colour of:
$(i)$ a brinjal
$(ii)$ danger signal
$(iii)$ neel (indigo) which is applied to clothes
$(iv)$ orange

$(a)$ State two main causes of a person developing near-sightedness (myopia). With the help of a ray diagram, suggest how this disability can be corrected.
$(b)$ The far point of a myopic person is $150 \ cm$ in front of the eye. Calculate the focal length and power of the lens required to enable him to see distant objects clearly.
