$A$ parallel beam of light travelling in water (refractive index $\mu_1 = 4/3$) is refracted by a spherical air bubble of radius $R = 2 \, cm$ situated in water. Assuming the light rays to be paraxial,the position of the image due to refraction at the first surface is:

In the figure shown,$O$ is the centre of the glass sphere. The spot $P$ on the sphere,when viewed almost normally,appears:

$A$ point object is kept at $P$ in front of a glass sphere of radius $R$. Its image is formed at $Q$ such that $PO = QO$. The refractive index of the material of the glass sphere is $1.4$. The distance $PO$ is equal to:

$A$ spherical surface of radius of curvature $R$ separates air (refractive index $1.0$) from glass (refractive index $1.5$). The centre of curvature is in the glass. $A$ point object $P$ placed in air is found to have a real image $Q$ in the glass. The line $PQ$ cuts the surface at a point $O$,and $PO = OQ$. The distance $PO$ is equal to (in $R$)

Region $I$ and $II$ are separated by a spherical surface of radius $25\, \text{cm}$. An object is kept in region $I$ at a distance of $40\, \text{cm}$ from the surface. The distance of the image from the surface is $.....\, \text{cm}$.
