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 lens
B. Concave mirror
C. Concave lens
D. Convex mirror
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
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.

The distance traveled by an object is directly obtained from
A. Speed-time graph slope
B. Acceleration-time graph
C. Velocity-time graph area
D. Displacement-time graph slope

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Area under v-t graph gives displacement (distance if velocity doesn't change sign). Slope of x-t gives velocity. Slope of v-t gives acceleration. Area a-t gives change in velocity.

The potential at a point due to a point charge is 10 V at distance 2 m. Potential at 4 m is
A. 5 V
B. 10 V
C. 20 V
D. 2.5 V

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
V ∝ 1/r. So if r doubled, V halved = 5 V.

The work done in moving a charge of 2 C between two points with potential difference of 12 V is:
A. 14 J
B. 6 J
C. 24 J
D. 0.167 J

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Work done W = charge (Q) × potential difference (V). Thus W = 2 C × 12 V = 24 J. This follows from definition of voltage: 1 volt = 1 joule per coulomb. The work done equals the change in electrical potential energy. This fundamental relationship is crucial in electricity. Memory tip: W = QV is analogous to mechanical work = force × distance. Such direct formula applications are common in competitive exams to test basic concept retention. Always verify units: coulomb × volt = joule, confirming dimensional consistency.
