In each of the questions, assertion(A) is given by corresponding statement of reason (R) of the statemens. Mark the correct answer.
Q. Statement I: The formula connecting u,v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature.
Statement II: Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces, but not for large spherical surfaces.

A

If both the assertion and reason are true and reason explains the assertion.

B

If both the assertion and reason are true but reason does not explain the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Assertion is true. Laws of reflection can be applied to any type of surface.

Statement - 1 : The formula connecting u, v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Because Statement - 2 : Laws of reflection are strictly valid for plane surfaces, but not for large spherical surfaces.

Assertion The formula connecting u, v and f for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirrors sizes which are very small compared to their radii of curvature. Reason Laws of reflection are stricity valid for plane surface, but not for large spherical.

Assertion:- The formula ((1)/(4)+(1)/(u)=(1)/(f)) connecting u and v for a spherical mirror is valid only for mirros whose sizes are very small compared to their radii of curvatures. Reason:- Laws of reflection are strictly valid for smaller size of of optical system.
