    $10\,cm$ to the left of the centre
  • B
    $30\,cm$ to the left of the centre
  • C
    $50\,cm$ to the left of the centre

$A$ diverging lens of focal length $10 \, cm$ is placed $10 \, cm$ in front of a plane mirror as shown in the figure. Light from a very far away source falls on the lens. The final image is at a distance

$A$ beaker of radius $r$ is filled with water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) up to a height $H$ as shown in the figure. The beaker is kept on a horizontal table rotating with angular speed $\omega$. This makes the water surface curved so that the difference in the height of the water level at the center and at the circumference of the beaker is $h$ $(h \ll H, h \ll r)$,as shown in the figure. Take this surface to be approximately spherical with a radius of curvature $R$. Which of the following is/are correct? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)
$(A)$ $R=\frac{h^2+r^2}{2 h}$
$(B)$ $R=\frac{r^2}{2 h}$
$(C)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{4}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{4 g}\right)^{-1}$
$(D)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{2}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{2 g}\right)^{-1}$

The flat bottom of a cylindrical tank is silvered and water $(\mu = 4/3)$ is filled in the tank up to a height $h$. $A$ small bird is hovering at a height $3h$ from the bottom of the tank. When a small hole is opened near the bottom of the tank,the water level falls at the rate of $1\, cm/s$. The bird will perceive that its image's velocity is:

$A$ point source is placed at a distance of $15 \, cm$ from a converging (convex) lens of focal length $10 \, cm$. At what distance (in $cm$) should a convex mirror of focal length $12 \, cm$ be placed so that the image is formed on the object itself?

$A$ fish in an aquarium,$30 \, cm$ deep in water,can see a light bulb kept $50 \, cm$ above the surface of water. The fish can also see the image of this bulb in the reflecting bottom surface of the aquarium. The total depth of water is $60 \, cm$. Then the apparent distance between the two images seen by the fish is $(\mu_w = 4/3)$.
