$A$ beaker of radius $r$ is filled with water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) up to a height $H$ as shown in the figure. The beaker is kept on a horizontal table rotating with angular speed $\omega$. This makes the water surface curved so that the difference in the height of the water level at the center and at the circumference of the beaker is $h$ $(h \ll H, h \ll r)$,as shown in the figure. Take this surface to be approximately spherical with a radius of curvature $R$. Which of the following is/are correct? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)
$(A)$ $R=\frac{h^2+r^2}{2 h}$
$(B)$ $R=\frac{r^2}{2 h}$
$(C)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{4}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{4 g}\right)^{-1}$
$(D)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{2}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{2 g}\right)^{-1}$

Four bulbs,red,green,white and blue (denoted by $R, G, W$ and $B$ respectively) are kept in front of a converging lens (as shown in the figure). The observer sees that the green and blue bulbs are kept to the left of the principal axis,while the red and white bulbs are kept to the right of the principal axis. He also sees that the red and green bulbs are above the principal axis,while the white and blue bulbs are below the principal axis. The screens $S_1$ and $S_2$ are set at appropriate positions for focusing to view the images. Choose the figure that correctly represents the images as seen by the observer.

Two light sources with equal luminous intensity are placed at a distance of $1.2\, m$ from each other. Where should a screen be placed between them such that the illuminance on one of its faces is four times that on the other face?

$A$ convex lens forms an image of an object on a screen. The height of the image is $9 \, cm$. The lens is now displaced until an image is again obtained on the screen. The height of this image is $4 \, cm$. The distance between the object and the screen is $90 \, cm$.

$A$ light ray is incident,at an incident angle $\theta_{1}$,on the system of two plane mirrors $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ having an inclination angle $75^{\circ}$ between them (as shown in figure). After reflecting from mirror $M_{1}$,it gets reflected back by the mirror $M_{2}$ with an angle of reflection $30^{\circ}$. The total deviation of the ray will be $\dots$ degree.

$A$ water drop in air refracts the light ray as:
