The back surface of a glass slab (refractive index $n$ and thickness $t$) is polished to act as a mirror,as shown in the figure. $A$ laser beam is incident on it,which is partially reflected and partially refracted at the air-glass interface. The refracted part is fully reflected at the mirror surface. $A$ pattern of discrete spots of light is observed on a screen placed perpendicular to the glass surface. The spacing between the spots on the screen is:

$A$ glass slab of thickness $4 \ cm$ contains the same number of waves as $5 \ cm$ of water when both are traversed by the same monochromatic ray of light. The refractive index of water is $4/3$. What is the refractive index of glass?

$A$ transparent cube of $15\, cm$ edge contains a small air bubble. Its apparent depth when viewed through one face is $6\, cm$ and when viewed through the opposite face is $4\, cm$. Then the refractive index of the material of the cube is
