AI Thread Summary
To effectively draw the complex diagram in exams, focus on capturing only the essential elements, such as the outer rays, which can simplify the process. Using different colors for various components can enhance memory retention and understanding of the concepts involved. Understanding the underlying principles of the convex lens and its function is crucial for accurate representation. Practicing with fewer rays initially can help build confidence before attempting the full diagram. Mastery of these techniques will improve drawing accuracy under exam conditions.

please click on the image for a larger view.please somebody tell me is there any technique to follow to draw this diagram in exams.by seeing i can easily draw it but without seeing i cannot draw.please i need some tips
 
Do you have to draw this in exam?I doubt it.

Draw only the real essentials:

Can you get by drawing one ray or two rays instead of 5 rays?

Drawing only the outer two rays gives you the shape of the beam and if you need more rays then you've drawn the boundaries already making it easier.

Of course your other option is to get a tattoo but I think that would be far more painful... :smile:

Another option is to draw what you need in different colors, so that they will stand out in your mind:

black for the lens, blue for the the rays, red for the angles...

It will be much easier to reconstruct the drawing if you understand the concepts behind it. It is just a convex lens that focusses a set of parallel rays. Question is why is the lens at an angle?
 

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
