An optical arrangement consists of two concave mirrors $M_1$ and $M_2$,and a convex lens $L$ with a common principal axis,as shown in the figure. The focal length of $L$ is $10 \text{ cm}$. The radii of curvature of $M_1$ and $M_2$ are $20 \text{ cm}$ and $24 \text{ cm}$,respectively. The distance between $L$ and $M_2$ is $20 \text{ cm}$. $A$ point object $S$ is placed at the mid-point between $L$ and $M_2$ on the axis. When the distance between $L$ and $M_1$ is $n/7 \text{ cm}$,one of the images coincides with $S$. The value of $n$ is. . . .

Discuss the sign convention of distances for reflection by a spherical mirror and refraction by a spherical lens.

$A$ 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 $\mu_2 > \mu_3$

An optical bench has a $1.5 m$ long scale having four equal divisions in each $cm$. While measuring the focal length of a convex lens,the lens is kept at the $75 cm$ mark of the scale and the object pin is kept at the $45 cm$ mark. The image of the object pin on the other side of the lens overlaps with the image pin that is kept at the $135 cm$ mark. In this experiment,the percentage error in the measurement of the focal length of the lens is. . . . .
