A real image can be obtained on a screen. Which of the following always forms a virtual image? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A real image can be obtained on a screen. Which of the following always forms a virtual image?
A. Convex mirror
B. Convex lens
C. Concave lens
D. Concave mirror
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Convex mirror and concave lens always produce virtual images. Concave mirror and convex lens can produce real images under certain conditions. So convex mirror always virtual.

A pump lifts 100 kg of water through 5 m in 2 s. Power (g=10) is
A. 1000 W
B. 250 W
C. 2500 W
D. 500 W

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Work = 100×10×5=5000 J. Power = 5000/2 = 2500 W.

C. V. Raman is known for his work on:
A. Raman effect (light scattering)
B. Theory of relativity
C. Photoelectric effect
D. Electromagnetic induction

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Sir C. V. Raman discovered the Raman effect in 1928: inelastic scattering of photons by molecules, changing wavelength, providing information about molecular structure. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930. Photoelectric effect: Einstein; relativity: Einstein; electromagnetic induction: Faraday. Memory tip: 'Raman = scattering of light'. This scientist-discovery question tests knowledge of Indian contributions to physics, commonly featured in competitive exams. Always link Nobel laureates to their specific awarded work.

Question #3
The escape velocity of a body from Earth is v_e. If Earth's radius shrinks to 1/4th keeping mass constant, escape velocity becomes
A. 4 v_e
B. v_e/2
C. v_e/4
D. 2 v_e

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
v_esc ∝ √(1/R). If R→R/4, v_esc ∝ √(4) = 2. So 2v_e.
