The bottom of a container is a glass slab of thickness $4 \ cm$ and refractive index $\mu = 1.5$. The container contains two immiscible liquids $A$ and $B$ of depths $6 \ cm$ and $8 \ cm$ respectively. When a crack at the bottom surface of the glass slab is viewed from above,by what distance (in $cm$) does it appear to be shifted? The refractive indices of $A$ and $B$ are $1.4$ and $1.3$ respectively.

  • A
    $3.80$
  • B
    $5.10$
  • C
    $4.88$
  • D
    $4.30$

$A$ ray of light is incident normally on a glass slab of thickness $5 \ cm$ and refractive index $1.6$. The time taken by a ray to travel from the source of light to the surface of the slab is the same as the time taken to travel through the glass slab. The distance of the source from the surface is: (in $cm$)

$A$ ray of light is incident from air on a glass plate having thickness $\sqrt{3} \, cm$ and refractive index $\sqrt{2}$. The angle of incidence of the ray is equal to the critical angle for the glass-air interface. The lateral displacement of the ray when it passes through the plate is $....... \times 10^{-2} \, cm$ (given $\sin 15^{\circ} = 0.26$).

$A$ beaker containing liquid is placed on a table,underneath a microscope which can be moved along a vertical scale. The microscope is focused,through the liquid,onto a mark on the table when the reading on the scale is $a$. It is next focused on the upper surface of the liquid and the reading is $b$. More liquid is added and the observations are repeated,the corresponding readings are $c$ and $d$. The refractive index of the liquid is
