A farsighted woman breaks her current eyeglasses and is using an old pair whose refractive power is 1.660 diopters. Since these eyeglasses do not completely correct her vision, she must hold a newspaper 42.00 cm from her eyes in order to read it. She wears the eyeglasses 2.00 cm from her eyes. How far is her near point from her eyes?

  1. 75 cm

  2. 125 cm

  3. 225 cm

  4. 121.05 cm

D Correct answer
Explanation
The refractive power of the lens is $1.660$ dipters. So the focal length of the lens is $f=\dfrac{1}{1.660}=0.6024\,m=60.24\,cm$

The distance between the newpaper and her eyes is $42.00\,cm$

The distance between her eyes and glasses is $2.00\,cm$

So, the distance between the lglasses and newspaper is $(42.00-2.00)\,cm=40.00\,cm.$ That is, $d _0=40.00\,cm$

The distance $(d _i)$ between the glasses and the virtual image formed by the lens given by,

$d _i=\dfrac{fd _0}{d _0-f}=\dfrac{60.24-40.00}{40.00-60.24}=-119.05\,cm$

This relation is obtained from thin lens equation and the negative sign implies the image is virtual.

This position is her near point.

So the near point from her eyes is, $119.05\,cm+2.00\,cm=121.05\,cm$

Myopia can be corrected by using spectacle having ________.

  1. Concave lens

  2. Convex lens

  3. Biconvex lens

  4. Biconcave lens
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Myopia (nearsightedness) occurs when light focuses in front of the retina. A concave lens is used to diverge the light before it enters the eye, pushing the focal point back onto the retina.

A girl whose eyes are $150  \mathrm{cm}  $ above the ground looks at her reflection in a vertical mirror $ 250  \mathrm{cm}  $ away. The top and bottom of the mirror are $200 \mathrm{cm}  $ and  $120 \mathrm{cm} $ above the ground respectively. What length below her eyes can she see of herself in the mirror?

  1. $60 cm$
  2. $75 cm$
  3. $100 cm$
  4. $120 cm$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The girl's eyes are at 150 cm. The mirror spans 120 cm to 200 cm. The portion of the mirror she can see is determined by the geometry of reflection. She can see the part of the mirror from 120 cm to 200 cm, which is 80 cm, but the question asks for the length of herself she can see, which is twice the mirror height available relative to her eye level.

A student of class $  10,  $ is not able to see clearly the black board question when seated at a distance of $5  \mathrm{m}  $ from the board,the defect he is suffering from is

  1. Myopia

  2. Hypermetropia

  3. Presbyopia

  4. Astigmatism

A Correct answer
Explanation

If a student cannot see distant objects (like a blackboard) clearly, they are suffering from myopia (nearsightedness).

A man can see clearly up to $3\ \textit{metres}$. Prescribe a lens for his spectacles so that he can see clearly up to $12\ \textit{metres}$

  1. $-3/4\ D$
  2. $3\ D$
  3. $-1/4\ D$
  4. $-4\ D$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The lens must form an image at 3 m for an object at 12 m. 1/f = 1/v - 1/u = 1/-3 - 1/-12 = -4/12 + 1/12 = -3/12 = -1/4. Power P = 1/f = -0.25 D.

Myopia is a defect of vision caused by

  1. decrease in the retinal distance from the lens

  2. a decrease in the diameter of the eyeball

  3. an increase in the thickness of the lens

  4. an increase in the curvature of the lens
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Myopia is primarily caused by an elongated eyeball or an increase in the curvature of the lens, both of which cause light to converge in front of the retina instead of on it.

A professor reads a greeting card on his 50th birthday with +2.5D glasses keeping the card 25 cm away. 10 years later he reads the greeting card  with same glasses keeping the card 50 cm away.What power should he wear now?

  1. 2D

  2. 0.5D

  3. 2.25D

  4. 4.5D

D Correct answer
Explanation

$ \dfrac { 1 }{ { f }^{ ' } } =\dfrac { 1 }{ 25 } -\dfrac { 1 }{ 50 } =\dfrac { 1 }{ 50 } \quad or$


$ P=2D$

${ p } _{ net }=2.5+2=4.5D$

A person cannot see distinctly at the distance less than one metre. Calculate the power of the lens that he should use to read a book at a distance of $25\, cm$

  1. $+ 3.0\, D$
  2. $+ 0.125\, D$
  3. $- 3.0\, D$
  4. $+ 4.0\, D$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The person needs to see an object at 25 cm (u = -0.25 m) as if it were at 1 m (v = -1 m). 1/f = 1/v - 1/u = 1/-1 - 1/-0.25 = -1 + 4 = 3. Power P = +3.0 D.

A person has a defect of eye-vision his near point is at distance of 40 cm from his eye it means 

  1. he cannot observe the objects clearly which are at a distance more than 40 cm

  2. he can observe the objects clearly which are at a distance of 40 cm only.

  3. he can observe the objects clearly which are at a distance equal to 40 cm or more than 40 cm

  4. he can observe the objects clearly which hare at a distance less than 40 cm
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

A near point of 40 cm means the person's eye can clearly focus on objects placed at 40 cm and farther away, but struggles with objects closer than 40 cm. Therefore, they can observe objects clearly at a distance equal to 40 cm or more than 40 cm. Option C accurately captures this definition of hypermetropia.
