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.What is Newton's colour disc, and what does its rapid rotation demonstrate about white light?

- A.A disc with random colors; shows colors can mix to form black.
- B.A disc with spectrum colors (VIBGYOR); shows white light is a combination of all colors.
- C.A disc with primary colors; shows secondary colors are formed by mixing.
- D.A disc with monochrome shades; shows light intensity variation.
-
2.An object placed in front of a convex lens, forms an image of same size on a screen. Moving the object 12 cm closer to the lens results in the formation of a real image which is three times the size of the object. Calculate the focal length of the lens.
-
3.A ray of light incident at an angle of incidence $48^\circ$ on a prism of refracting angle $60^\circ$ suffers minimum deviation. Calculate the angle of minimum deviation. [Hint: $\delta_{min} = 2i - A$]
-
4.A spectrum in which various bands of colour have no sharp, well defined boundaries, but merge in each other is called
- A.Infrared spectrum
- B.Impure spectrum
- C.Red spectrum
- D.Pure spectrum
-
5.A stick partly immersed in water appears bent when viewed obliquely from above. Which ray diagram correctly shows the bending of the stick due to refraction?
is the reference diagram.- A.Light bends toward the normal, making the stick appear bent downward
- B.Light bends away from the normal, making the stick appear bent upward
- C.Light travels straight without bending, so the stick appears straight
- D.Light reflects completely, making the stick invisible underwater
