$A$ thin oil layer floats on water. $A$ ray of light making an angle of incidence of $40^o$ shines on the oil layer. The angle of refraction of the light ray in water is......$^o$ $({\mu _{oil}} = 1.45, {\mu _{water}} = 1.33)$

When an object is moved along the principal axis of a concave mirror placed in air,the image coincides with the object if the object is $50 \ cm$ from the mirror. If the mirror is placed at a depth of $20 \ cm$ in a transparent medium,the image coincides with the object when the object is $40 \ cm$ from the mirror. The refractive index of the liquid is

If the angle of incidence is twice the angle of refraction in a medium of refractive index $\mu$,then the angle of incidence is

An observer can see through a pin-hole the top end of a thin rod of height $h$,placed as shown in the figure. The beaker height is $3h$ and its radius is $h$. When the beaker is filled with a liquid up to a height $2h$,the observer can see the lower end of the rod. Then the refractive index of the liquid is

$A$ light of wavelength $\lambda_{1}$ and velocity $C_{1}$ travels from the first medium of refractive index $\mu_{1}$ into the second medium of refractive index $\mu_{2}$. The wavelength and velocity of light in the second medium are $\lambda_{2}$ and $C_{2}$ respectively. The refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first medium is given by:
