Q6
Consider the following statements and choose the incorrect one:
[A]. A mirror changes the direction of light that falls on it.

Q7
Priya is writing some statements, choose the incorrect statement and help her:
[A]. The smooth surface pf still water can also act as a mirror.
[B]. A shining silvered mirror reflects back almost all the light which falls on it.

Q8
Bikash is doing his homework which is given by his teacher. Would you help him to choose the incorrect sentences?
[A]. What we see in the mirror is actually a reflection of our face and it is called the image of our face.
[B]. We can see the image of our face in the mirror because the smooth and shiny surface of mirror produces regular reflection of light.
[C]. We cannot see the image of our face in the sheet of paper because the rough and dull surface of paper produces irregular reflection of light.
[D]. The image which can be obtained on a screen is called virtual image which we can see in cinema screen.

Payel is completed her science chapter where she wrote some statements. She wants to know whether the statements are correct or not? Payel wants to take help from you:
[A]. Our image in a plane mirror is an example of virtual image.
[B]. The image which cannot be obtained on a screen is called a virtual image.
[C]. It is not possible to obtain a virtual image on the screen because light rays actually do not pass through it.
[D]. None of the above.
Q10
In the last year board examination, Rahul were asked a question where he had to choose the statement which was/were correct? Will you be able to answer this question?
[A]. Convex mirror are used as rear-view mirrors or side view mirrors in vehicles.
[B]. For very distant objects, a convex lens produces a real and inverted image which is much smaller than the object.
[C]. And when an object is brought very close to a convex lens, then a virtual and erect image is formed which is larger than the object.
[D]. All the above.
Q11
In a quiz competition, you are asked a question where you have to choose the statement which is/ are incorrect?
