Mark ‘T’ if the statement is true and ‘F’ if it is false:
(a) We can obtain an enlarged and erect image by a convex mirror. (T/F)
(b) A concave lens always form a virtual image. (T/F)
(c) We can obtain a real, enlarged and inverted image by a concave
mirror. (T/F)
(d) A real image cannot be obtained on a screen. (T/F)
(e) A concave mirror always form a real image. (T/F)

Electric current and it’s effect

Make four electromagnets with 20, 40, 60 and 80 turns. Connect them
one by one to a battery of 2 cells. Bring the electromagnet near a box of
pins. Count the number of pins attracted by it. Compare the strengths
of the Explain…
