ICSE Class 10 Light — Mock Test (2027)

Free online mock test for Light (ICSE Class 10 Physics) — 20 competency-based questions based on the latest CISCE 2027 syllabus, with instant marking. Try the samples below, then take the full test free.

What to expect: This mock test covers key concepts from the Light chapter — including application-based and competency-focused questions aligned with how ICSE actually sets the paper.

Tip: Attempt without notes first to identify gaps, then review explanations for any wrong answers. Retake after a few days for best retention.

Sample questions

  1. 1.What happens when a beam of white light passes through a hollow prism?
    • A.It produces a full spectrum of colors.
    • B.It disperses into a partial spectrum of colors.
    • C.No spectrum is produced because dispersion does not occur.
    • D.It reflects the light without any change in color.
  2. 2.You are provided with a printed piece of paper. How can you differentiate between a convex lens and a concave lens by observing the letters on the paper?
    • A.Letters appear inverted and magnified for both lenses.
    • B.Letters appear erect and magnified for convex, erect and diminished for concave.
    • C.Letters appear blurred for both lenses.
    • D.Letters appear erect and diminished for convex, magnified for concave.
  3. 3.An endoscope uses optic fiber to transmit high resolution images of internal organs without loss of information. The principle of light that is used by the optic fiber is based on:
    • a.refraction
    • b.reflection
    • c.scattering
    • d.total internal reflection
  4. 4.21. A ray of light travels from a medium of refractive index n₁ to a medium of refractive index n₂. If angle of incidence is i and angle of refraction is r, then sin i / sin r is equal to
    • A.n₂ / n₁
    • B.n₁ / n₂
    • C.n₁
    • D.n₂
  5. 5.The wavelength of red light is $800 \mathrm{~nm}$. Find its frequency. Speed of light $= 3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$.
