When the same monochromatic ray of light travels through a glass slab and through water,the number of waves in a glass slab of thickness $6 \ cm$ is the same as in a water column of height $7 \ cm$. If the refractive index of glass is $1.5$,then the refractive index of water is:

  • A
    $1.258$
  • B
    $1.269$
  • C
    $1.286$
  • D
    $1.31$

$A$ 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).
