Captain Jack Sparrow tries to observe a fish almost vertically below him in a magical sea of variable refractive index $\mu = y^2 + 1$,where $y$ is the depth below the water surface. Find the apparent depth of the fish below the water level as seen by Captain Jack Sparrow. The actual depth of the fish is $1 \ m$.

  • A
    $\frac{\pi}{4} \ m$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi}{2} \ m$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{3} \ m$
  • D
    $\pi \ m$

An observer can see through a small hole on the side of a jar (radius $15\, cm$) at a point at a height of $15\, cm$ from the bottom (see figure). The hole is at a height of $45\, cm$. When the jar is filled with a liquid up to a height of $30\, cm$,the same observer can see the edge at the bottom of the jar. If the refractive index of the liquid is $N/100$,where $N$ is an integer,the value of $N$ is $.....$
