A parallel beam of light emerges from the opposite surface of the sphere when a point source of light lies at the surface of the sphere. The refractive index of the sphere is


Important Questions on Ray Optics
In a thin spherical fish bowl of radius filled with water of refractive index , there is a small fish at a distance of from the centre as shown in the figure. Where will the image of fish appear, if seen from ?

The observer sees the distance as infinitely large. If the refractive index of the liquid is and that of glass is then is

The first focal length for refraction at a spherical surface is defined as the value of corresponding to (as shown) with refractive indices of two mediums as and . The second focal length is defined as value of for (where is the radius of the curved surface). Choose the correct option(s).

The graph shows how the magnification , produced by a convex thin lens, varies with the image distance . What is the focal length?




A convergent lens is placed inside a cell filled with a liquid, as shown in the figure. The lens has focal length when in air and its material has refractive index . If the liquid has refractive index , the focal length of the system is
