(a) State the angle of minimum deviation of this prism and the corresponding angle of incidence.

(b) Calculate the value of X.

(ii) Redraw and complete the path of the ray AB till it emerges out of the prism of critical angle 42°.

(iii)

The above diagram shows that an observer sees the image of an object O at I.

(a) Name and define the phenomenon responsible for seeing the image at a different position.

(b) State the effect on X when:

1. Y increases

2. Y decreases

Question 5:

(i) An object of height 20 cm is placed in front of a lens at a distance of 50 cm. Its virtual, diminished image is formed at a distance of 15 cm.

(a) Identify the type of the lens.
(b) Calculate the focal length of the lens.

(ii) The diagram below shows the extreme colours of a visible spectrum (X and Y).

(a) Identify the colours X and Y.

(a) Calculate the clockwise moment.

(b) State whether X = 100 gf or X < 100 gf or X > 100 ef.

(c) Give a reason for your answer.

(iii) A coconut of mass 450 g falls from the top of an 80 m high tree.

(a) Calculate the potential energy possessed by the coconut when it is at the top of the tree.

(b) Without calculation, state the kinetic energy with which it strikes the ground and state the principle involved to arrive at the answer in eg. = 10 ms-²

Question 7:
