- Which type of lens is used to correct myopia (short-sightedness)?
Convex lens
Concave lens
Cylindrical lens
Plano-convex lens
Answer and explanation
Concave lenses are used to correct myopia because they diverge light rays before reaching the eye.

Zeroth law
First law
Second law
Third law
The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only transformed.
IR
I/R
R/I
I+R
Ohm’s law states that V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Vacuum
Sound requires a medium (solid, liquid, or gas) to travel, so it cannot travel through a vacuum.
Where:

0° - No reflection occurs
45° - When incident angle is 45°k
90° - Perpendicular to surface
180° - Complete reversal
Law of Reflection: The angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.
| 📐 Incident Angle | 🔄 Reflected Angle | 🪞 Surface Type | ✅ Verification |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30° | 30° | Plane Mirror | θᵣ = θᵢ |
| 45° | 45° | Plane Mirror | θᵣ = θᵢ |
| 60° | 60° | Plane Mirror | θᵣ = θᵢ |
💡 Note: This fundamental law forms the basis for understanding mirrors, periscopes, and many optical instruments used in physics.
