Light / प्रकाश

The source describes light as a form of energy propagated as an electromagnetic wave. It enables our eyes to see objects.

Source Light को electromagnetic wave के रूप में propagate होने वाली energy बताता है। Light के कारण हमारी eyes objects को देख पाती हैं।

Speed of Light / प्रकाश की गति

The source gives the speed of light as 3 × 108 m/s.

Light की speed 3 × 108 m/s दी गई है।

  • Light is an electromagnetic wave. / Light एक electromagnetic wave है।
  • It is a transverse wave. / यह transverse wave है।
  • Source states that sunlight takes 8 min 19 s to reach Earth. / Source के अनुसार sunlight को Earth तक पहुँचने में 8 min 19 s लगते हैं।
  • Reflected light from the Moon takes 1.28 s to reach Earth according to the source. / Moon से reflected light को Earth तक पहुँचने में source के अनुसार 1.28 s लगते हैं।

Reflection of Light / प्रकाश का परावर्तन

When a light ray strikes a boundary separating two media and returns into the same medium, the phenomenon is called reflection.

जब light ray दो media की boundary से टकराकर उसी medium में वापस आती है तो इसे Reflection of Light कहते हैं।

Laws of Reflection / परावर्तन के नियम

  1. The incident ray, reflected ray and normal at the point of incidence lie in the same plane. / Incident ray, reflected ray तथा normal एक ही plane में होते हैं।
  2. Angle of reflection equals angle of incidence. / Angle of Reflection = Angle of Incidence.

Plane Mirror / समतल दर्पण

  • Image is virtual. / Image virtual होती है।
  • Image is laterally inverted. / Image laterally inverted होती है।
  • Image size equals object size. / Image और object का size equal होता है।
  • If an object approaches a mirror with speed v, image approaches the object relatively at 2v according to the source. / Object v speed से mirror की ओर जाए तो object के relative image 2v speed से approach करती है।
  • For a full image, mirror length must be at least half the person's height. / Full image देखने के लिए mirror की minimum length व्यक्ति की height की half होनी चाहिए।

Two Plane Mirrors / दो समतल दर्पण

The source provides the relation n = (360°/θ) − 1 for the number of images in the stated context, where θ is the angle between mirrors.

Spherical Mirrors / गोलीय दर्पण

Spherical mirrors are of two types: Concave Mirror and Convex Mirror.

Spherical Mirrors दो प्रकार के होते हैं—Concave Mirror और Convex Mirror।

Convex Mirror / उत्तल दर्पण

The image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual, erect and diminished according to the source.

Convex Mirror द्वारा formed image हमेशा virtual, erect तथा diminished होती है।

Concave Mirror / अवतल दर्पण

The source states that the image formed by a concave mirror is generally real and inverted.

Uses of Concave Mirror / अवतल दर्पण के उपयोग

  • Shaving glass / Shaving mirror
  • Vehicle headlights / Vehicle headlights के reflector
  • Searchlights / Searchlights
  • Ophthalmoscope / Ophthalmoscope
  • Solar cookers / Solar cooker

Uses of Convex Mirror / उत्तल दर्पण के उपयोग

  • Rear-view mirror because it provides a wide rear field of view and erect image. / Vehicles में rear-view mirror क्योंकि यह wider field of view देता है।
  • Sodium reflector lamp / Sodium reflector lamp
