Define a ray and a beam of light.
(N/A) $1$. Ray of Light: $A$ ray of light is defined as the path along which light energy travels. It is represented by a straight line with an arrowhead indicating the direction of propagation.
$2$. Beam of Light: $A$ beam of light is defined as a bundle or collection of a large number of light rays traveling together in a particular direction. Beams can be classified as parallel,convergent,or divergent.

View SolutionAn object is placed at a distance of $30\,cm$ from a convex lens of focal length $20\,cm$. On the other side of the lens,a convex mirror is placed such that the image formed by the combination coincides with the object itself. If the distance between the lens and the mirror is $20\,cm$,find the focal length of the convex mirror in $cm$.

View SolutionAs shown in the figure, a parallel beam of light is incident on the upper part of a prism of angle $1.8^{\circ}$ and material of refractive index $1.5$. The light emerging from the prism falls on a concave mirror of radius of curvature $40 \,cm$. The distance of the point from the principal axis of the mirror where the light rays are focused after reflection from the mirror is:
$A$ prism with a refractive index of $1.5$ and an angle $A = 4^o$ is placed in front of a mirror. When the incident ray is reflected by the mirror,what is the total deviation in degrees?

View Solution$A$ ray of light strikes a plane mirror at an angle of incidence $45^o$ as shown in the figure. After reflection,the ray passes through a prism of refractive index $1.5$,whose apex angle is $4^o$. The angle through which the mirror should be rotated if the total deviation of the ray is to be $90^o$ is
