$A$ glass tumbler having an inner depth of $17.5 \, cm$ is kept on a table. $A$ student starts pouring water $(\mu = 4/3)$ into it while looking at the surface of water from above. When he feels that the tumbler is half-filled,he stops pouring water. Up to what height,the tumbler is actually filled? (In $cm$)

Time taken by the sunlight to pass through a window of thickness $4 \, mm$ whose refractive index is $1.5$ is

Three immiscible liquids of densities $d_1 > d_2 > d_3$ and refractive indices $\mu_1 > \mu_2 > \mu_3$ are put in a beaker. The height of each liquid column is $\frac{h}{3}$. $A$ dot is made at the bottom of the beaker. For near normal vision,find the apparent depth of the dot.

An underwater swimmer is at a depth of $12 \, m$ below the surface of water. $A$ bird is at a height of $18 \, m$ from the surface of water,directly above his eyes. For the swimmer,the bird appears to be at a distance from the surface of water equal to ....... $m$ (Refractive index of water is $4/3$).

$A$ slab of glass,of thickness $6\, cm$ and refractive index $1.5$,is placed in front of a concave mirror,the faces of the slab being perpendicular to the principal axis of the mirror. If the radius of curvature of the mirror is $40\, cm$ and the reflected image coincides with the object,then the distance of the object from the mirror is.....$cm$

The time required for the light to pass through a glass slab (refractive index $= 1.5$) of thickness $4 \,mm$ is ($c = 3 \times 10^{8} \,m/s$, speed of light in free space).
