$A$ vessel of depth $2h$ is half-filled with a liquid of refractive index $2\sqrt{2}$ and the upper half with another liquid of refractive index $\sqrt{2}$. The liquids are immiscible. The apparent depth of the inner surface of the bottom of the vessel will be:

  • A
    $\frac{h}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{4} h \sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{h}{2(\sqrt{2}+1)}$
  • D

$A$ 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?

In determining the refractive index of a glass slab using a travelling microscope,the following readings are tabulated:
$(a)$ Reading of travelling microscope for ink mark $= 5.123 \ cm$
$(b)$ Reading of travelling microscope for ink mark through glass slab $= 6.123 \ cm$

From the data,the refractive index of a glass slab is:

$A$ glass beaker is filled with water up to $5 \,cm$. It is kept on top of a $2 \,cm$ thick glass slab. When a coin at the bottom of the glass slab is viewed at normal incidence from above the beaker,its apparent depth from the water surface is $d \,cm$. The value of $d$ is close to ........ $cm$ (the refractive indices of water and glass are $1.33$ and $1.5$,respectively).
