An object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror. The image formed is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

An object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror. The image formed is
A. Real, inverted, same size
B. Virtual, erect, magnified
C. Real, inverted, diminished
D. Virtual, inverted, same size
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
At C (centre of curvature), image is at C, real, inverted, same size. At F, image at infinity. Beyond C, between F and C, diminished. Object between F and C gives beyond C, enlarged.

Question #2
Which of the following scientists formulated the 'Uncertainty Principle', stating that exact position and momentum of an electron cannot be simultaneously known?
A. Werner Heisenberg
B. Max Planck
C. Niels Bohr
D. Erwin Schrodinger

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Werner Heisenberg, a German theoretical physicist, published his famous Uncertainty Principle in 1927. The principle dictates a fundamental limit to precision at the quantum level: the more precisely the position of a particle (like an electron) is determined, the less precisely its momentum can be known, and vice versa. Mathematically, delta_x * delta_p >= h/(4pi).

Question #3
The dimensional formula of Planck's constant is same as that of
A. Linear momentum
B. Energy
C. Force
D. Angular momentum

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Planck's constant h = E/ν. Dimensions: [ML²T⁻²]/[T⁻¹] = [ML²T⁻¹]. Angular momentum = mvr = [ML²T⁻¹]. Linear momentum [MLT⁻¹], force [MLT⁻²], energy [ML²T⁻²]. So angular momentum matches. This is a frequently asked SSC question.
