Consider the situation shown in the figure. Water $\left( \mu_w = \frac{4}{3} \right)$ is filled in a beaker up to a height of $10 \, cm$. $A$ plane mirror is fixed at a height of $5 \, cm$ from the surface of the water. The distance of the image from the mirror after reflection of an object $O$ at the bottom of the beaker is......$cm$.

Two transparent slabs have the same thickness $t$. One is made of material $X$ of refractive index $1.5$. The other is made of two materials $Y$ and $Z$ having thicknesses in the ratio $1 : 2$. The refractive index of $Z$ is $1.6$. If a monochromatic parallel beam passing through the slabs has the same number of wavelengths inside both,the refractive index of $Y$ is

Three immiscible transparent liquids with uniform refractive indices $\frac{3}{2}, \frac{4}{3}$ and $\frac{6}{5}$ are arranged one on top of another. The depths of the liquids are $3 \ cm, 4 \ cm$ and $6 \ cm$ respectively. The apparent depth of the vessel is (in $cm$)

The back surface of a glass slab (refractive index $n$ and thickness $t$) is polished to act as a mirror,as shown in the figure. $A$ laser beam is incident on it,which is partially reflected and partially refracted at the air-glass interface. The refracted part is fully reflected at the mirror surface. $A$ pattern of discrete spots of light is observed on a screen placed perpendicular to the glass surface. The spacing between the spots on the screen is:
