When sunlight falls normally on Earth,a luminous flux density (illuminance) of $1.57 \times 10^5 \; lm/m^2$ is produced on Earth. The distance of Earth from the Sun is $1.5 \times 10^8 \; km$. The luminous intensity of the Sun in candela is:

  • A
    $3.53 \times 10^{27}$
  • B
    $3.53 \times 10^{25}$
  • C
    $3.53 \times 10^{29}$
  • D
    $3.53 \times 10^{21}$

$A$ right-angled prism of refractive index $\mu_1$ is placed in a rectangular block of refractive index $\mu_2$,which is surrounded by a medium of refractive index $\mu_3$,as shown in the figure. $A$ ray of light 'e' enters the rectangular block at normal incidence. Depending upon the relationships between $\mu_1, \mu_2$ and $\mu_3$,it takes one of the four possible paths '$ef$','$eg$','$eh$' or '$ei$'. Match the paths in List-$I$ with conditions of refractive indices in List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists:

$A$ photograph of the moon was taken with a telescope. Later on, it was found that a housefly was sitting on the objective lens of the telescope. In the photograph:

The object distance $u$,the image distance $v$,and the magnification $m$ in a lens follow certain linear relations. These are:

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......

$A$ 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
