In a reflecting telescope, a secondary mirror is used to:
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A: The phase difference of two light waves change if they travel through different media having same thickness, but different indices of refraction.
Reason R: The wavelengths of waves are different in different media.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
A 2 meter long scale with least count of $$0.2 \mathrm{~cm}$$ is used to measure the locations of objects on an optical bench. While measuring the focal length of a convex lens, the object pin and the convex lens are placed at $$80 \mathrm{~cm}$$ mark and $$1 \mathrm{~m}$$ mark, respectively. The image of the object pin on the other side of lens coincides with image pin that is kept at $$180 \mathrm{~cm}$$ mark. The $$\%$$ error in the estimation of focal length is:
A monochromatic light wave with wavelength $$\lambda_{1}$$ and frequency $$v_{1}$$ in air enters another medium. If the angle of incidence and angle of refraction at the interface are $$45^{\circ}$$ and $$30^{\circ}$$ respectively, then the wavelength $$\lambda_{2}$$ and frequency $$v_{2}$$ of the refracted wave are:
