- MCQ
This question has Statement \(-1\) and Statement \(-2\). Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements. Statement \(1\) : Very large size telescopes are reflecting telescopes instead of refracting telescopes. Statement \(2\) : It is easier to provide mechanical support to large size mirrors than large size lenses.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Statement \(- 1\) and statement \(-2\) are true and
Statement \(-2\) is correct explanation for statement \(-1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
One side of mirror is opaque and another side is reflecting this is not in case of lens
hence, it is easier to provide mechanical support to large size mirrors than large size lenses. Reflecting telescopes are based on the same principle except that the formation of images takes place by reflection instead of refraction.

- An ideal monoatomic gas is confined in a cylinder by a spring loaded piston of cross section \(8.0\times10^{-3}\, m^2\) . Initially the gas is at \(300\, K\) and occupies a volume of \(2.4\times10^{-3}\, m^3\) and the spring is in its relaxed state as shown in figure. The gas is heated by a small heater until the piston moves out slowly by \(0.1\, m\). The force constant of the spring is \(8000\, N/m\) and the atmospheric pressure is \(1.0\times10^5\, N/m^2\) . The cylinder and the piston are thermally insulated. The piston and the spring are massless and there is no friction between the piston and the cylinder. The final temperature of the gas will be: (Neglect the heat loss through the lead wires of the heater . The heat capacity of the heater coil is also negligible)
