Consider a point object $O$ situated at a distance of $30 \ cm$ from the centre of a sphere of radius $2 \ cm$ and refractive index $\mu_2 = 1.5$ as shown in the figure. If the refractive index of the region surrounding this sphere is $\mu_1 = 1.4$, then the position of the image due to refraction by the sphere with respect to the centre is:

  • A
    $30 \ cm$
  • B
    $45 \ cm$
  • C
    $\infty$
  • D
    $28 \ cm$

$A$ spherical glass is attached to a rigid wall as shown in the figure. An observer located at point $O$ is looking at a point $A$ on the wall. The refractive index of the glass is $1.5$ and that of air is $1.0$. The distances are $OA = 8 \text{ cm}$, $XA = 3 \text{ cm}$. If the radius of curvature of the spherical glass surface is $R = 5 \text{ cm}$, then the apparent distance of $A$ from the observer $O$ is (in $\text{ cm}$)
