Given below are two statements:

Statement I: Image formation needs regular reflection and/or refraction.
Statement II: The variety in colour of objects we see around us is due to the constituent colours of the light incident on them.
 
1. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
2. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
4. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.

Pick the wrong statement in the context with a rainbow.

1. Rainbow is a combined effect of dispersion, refraction, and reflection of sunlight.
2. When the light rays undergo two internal reflections in a water drop, a secondary rainbow is formed.
3. The order of colors is reversed in the secondary rainbow.
4. An observer can see a rainbow when his front is towards the sun.

A beam of light from a source \(L\) is incident normally on a plane mirror fixed at a certain distance \(x\) from the source. The beam is reflected back as a spot on a scale placed just above the source \(L.\) When the mirror is rotated through a small angle \(\theta,\) the spot of the light is found to move through a distance \(y\) on the scale. The angle \(\theta\) is given by:

1. \(\dfrac{y}{x}\) 2. \(\dfrac{x}{2y}\)
3. \(\dfrac{x}{y}\) 4. \(\dfrac{y}{2x}\)

Two plane mirrors are inclined at \(70^\circ.\) A ray incident on one mirror at an angle \(\theta\) after reflection falls on the second mirror and is reflected from there parallel to the first mirror. The value of \(\theta\) is:
1. \(45^\circ\) 2. \(30^\circ\)
3. \(55^\circ\) 4. \(50^\circ\)

An object is placed at a distance of \(40~\text{cm}\) from a concave mirror of a focal length of \(15~\text{cm}.\) If the object is displaced through a distance of \(20~\text{cm}\) towards the mirror, the displacement of the image will be:
1. \(30~\text{cm}\) away from the mirror.
2. \(36~\text{cm}\) away from the mirror.
3. \(30~\text{cm}\) towards the mirror.
4. \(36~\text{cm}\) towards the mirror.

A concave mirror of the focal length \(f_1\) is placed at a distance of \(d\) from a convex lens of focal length \(f_2\). A beam of light coming from infinity and falling on this convex lens-concave mirror combination returns to infinity. The distance \(d\) must be equal to:

1. \(f_1+f_2\)

2. \(-f_1+f_2\)

3. \(2f_1+f_2\)

4. \(-2f_1+f_2\)
