Find the luminous intensity of the sun if it produces the same illuminance on the earth as produced by a bulb of $10000 \, cd$ at a distance of $0.3 \, m$. The distance between the sun and the earth is $1.5 \times 10^{11} \, m$.

  • A
    $25 \times 10^{22} \, cd$
  • B
    $25 \times 10^{18} \, cd$
  • C
    $25 \times 10^{26} \, cd$
  • D
    $25 \times 10^{36} \, cd$

An object is placed in front of a convex mirror at a distance of $50\, cm$. $A$ plane mirror is introduced covering the lower half of the convex mirror. If the distance between the object and the plane mirror is $30\, cm$,it is found that there is no parallax between the images formed by the two mirrors. The magnification of the convex mirror will be......

An optical bench has a $1.5 m$ long scale having four equal divisions in each $cm$. While measuring the focal length of a convex lens,the lens is kept at the $75 cm$ mark of the scale and the object pin is kept at the $45 cm$ mark. The image of the object pin on the other side of the lens overlaps with the image pin that is kept at the $135 cm$ mark. In this experiment,the percentage error in the measurement of the focal length of the lens is. . . . .
