$A$ glass tumbler having an inner depth of $17.5 \, cm$ is kept on a table. $A$ student starts pouring water $(\mu = 4/3)$ into it while looking at the surface of water from above. When he feels that the tumbler is half-filled,he stops pouring water. Up to what height,the tumbler is actually filled? (In $cm$)

  • A

$A$ small pin fixed on a table top is viewed from above from a distance of $50 \, cm$. By what distance would the pin appear to be raised if it is viewed from the same point through a $15 \, cm$ thick glass slab held parallel to the table? Refractive index of glass $= 1.5$. Does the answer depend on the location of the slab?

An ice cube has a bubble inside. When viewed from one side,the apparent distance of the bubble is $12 \ cm$. When viewed from the opposite side,the apparent distance of the bubble is observed as $4 \ cm$. If the side of the ice cube is $24 \ cm$,the refractive index of the ice cube is $.....$.

$A$ diverging beam of light from a point source $S$ having divergence angle $\alpha$,falls symmetrically on a glass slab as shown. The angles of incidence of the two extreme rays are equal. If the thickness of the glass slab is $t$ and the refractive index is $n$,then the divergence angle of the emergent beam is

Two immiscible liquids of refractive indices $\frac{8}{5}$ and $\frac{3}{2}$ respectively are put in a beaker as shown in the figure.
