Important Questions on Ray Optics



A rod made of glass and of square cross-section is bent into the shape shown in figure. A parallel beam of light falls perpendicularly on the plane flat surface . Referring to the diagram, is the width of a side & is the radius of inner semicircle. Find the maximum value of ratio so that all light entering the glass through surface emerge from the glass through surface .


A ray of light falls on a transparent sphere with centre at as shown in figure. The ray emerges from the sphere parallel to line . Find the refractive index of the sphere.


A thin equiconvex lens of glass of refractive index and of focal length in air is sealed into an opening at one end of a tank filled with water . On the opposite side of the lens, a mirror is placed inside the tank on the tank wall perpendicular to the lens axis, as shown in figure. The separation between the lens and the mirror is A small object is placed outside the tank in from of the lens at a distance of from the lens on its axis. Find the position (distance in ) of the image of the object formed by the systme from the lens).
