Explanation Given: The distance of point source from water pool is L = 5 m . Formula used: The critical angle using Snell law is given by, θ c = sin − 1 ( n 2 n 1 ) Here, n 1 is the refraction index of water and n 2 is the refraction index of air. The radius of the largest circle is given by, r = d tan θ c Here, θ c is the critical angle. The area of the largest circle is given by, A = π r 2 Calculation: The area of the largest circle is written as, A = π r 2 = π ( d tan θ c ) = π ( d tan (

Ray Optics

Optics is the study of light in the field of physics. It refers to the study and properties of light. Optical phenomena can be classified into three categories: ray optics, wave optics, and quantum optics. Geometrical optics, also known as ray optics, is…

Converging Lens

Converging lens, also known as a convex lens, is thinner at the upper and lower edges and thicker at the center. The edges are curved outwards. This lens can converge a beam of parallel rays of light that is coming from outside and focus it on a point on…

To understand the topic well we will first break down the name of the topic, ‘Plano Convex lens’ into three separate words and look at them individually.

Lateral Magnification

In very simple terms, the same object can be viewed in enlarged versions of itself, which we call magnification. To rephrase, magnification is the ability to enlarge the image of an object without physically altering its dimensions and structure. This pr…
