Parallel rays are incident on a transparent sphere along its one diameter. After refraction,these rays converge at the other end of this diameter. The refractive index of the sphere is:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $1.5$
  • C
    $1.6$
  • D
    $2$

$A$ point source of light at the surface of a sphere causes a parallel beam of light to emerge from the opposite surface of the sphere. The refractive index of the material of the sphere is

$A$ 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. When the spot $P$ on the sphere is viewed almost normally,it appears:

$A$ 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 $R$)

Two identical glass rods $S_1$ and $S_2$ (refractive index $= 1.5$) have one convex end of radius of curvature $10 \ cm$. They are placed with the curved surfaces at a distance $d$ as shown in the figure,with their axes (shown by the dashed line) aligned. When a point source of light $P$ is placed inside rod $S_1$ on its axis at a distance of $50 \ cm$ from the curved face,the light rays emanating from it are found to be parallel to the axis inside $S_2$. The distance $d$ is (in $cm$)
