Ray optics is valid when characteristic dimensions are:

The mirrors are perpendicular to each other as shown in the figure. $A$ light ray $AB$ is incident on the mirror $M_1$. The reflected ray then undergoes a reflection from the mirror $M_2$. The final ray after reflection from $M_2$ will be parallel to the incident ray, if

$A$ reflecting surface is represented by the equation $y = \frac{2L}{\pi} \sin \left( \frac{\pi x}{L} \right)$,$0 \leq x \leq L$. $A$ ray travelling horizontally becomes vertical after reflection. The coordinates of the point$(s)$ where this ray is incident is?

$A$ right-angled prism of refractive index $\mu_1$ is placed in a rectangular block of refractive index $\mu_2$,which is surrounded by a medium of refractive index $\mu_3$,as shown in the figure. $A$ ray of light 'e' enters the rectangular block at normal incidence. Depending upon the relationships between $\mu_1, \mu_2$ and $\mu_3$,it takes one of the four possible paths '$ef$','$eg$','$eh$' or '$ei$'. Match the paths in List-$I$ with conditions of refractive indices in List-$II$ and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists:
List-$I$ List-$II$
$P$. $e \rightarrow f$ $1$. $\mu_1 > \sqrt{2} \mu_2$
$Q$. $e \rightarrow g$ $2$. $\mu_2 > \mu_1$ and $\mu_2 > \mu_3$
$R$. $e \rightarrow h$ $3$. $\mu_1 = \mu_2$
$S$. $e \rightarrow i$ $4$. $\mu_2 < \mu_1 < \sqrt{2} \mu_2$ and $\mu_2 > \mu_3$

Codes: $P \quad Q \quad R \quad S$

$A$ ray of sunlight enters a spherical water droplet $(n = 4/3)$ at an angle of incidence $53^o$ measured with respect to the normal to the surface. It is reflected from the back surface of the droplet and re-enters into air. The angle between the incoming and outgoing ray is $.......^o$ [Take $\sin \,53^o = 0.8$]
