Important Questions on Ray Optics
The path of a light ray inside a transparent slab of variable refractive index is A light ray travelling in air falls on the surface of the slab at an angle as shown in the figure. The refractive index of the slab at is



A small coin is fixed at the center of the base of an empty cylindrical steel container having radius and height . At time , the container starts getting filled with water at a flowrate of without disturbing the coin. Find the approximate time when the coin will first be seen by the observer "" from the height of above and radially away from the coin as shown in the figure. Refractive index of water is .


The depth of the swimming pool is . The area of the bottom of the swimming pool that can be seen through the slab is approximate-


A diver, below water surface is trying to shine a torch light towards the point O which is horizontally away. The amount and direction in which diver has to swim (in the figure) so that the light can not travel outside the surface of water is (Refractive index of water )


A cubical vessel has opaque walls. An observer (dark circle in the figure below) is located, such that she can see only the wall, , but not the bottom. Nearly to what height should water be poured, so that she can see an object placed at the bottom at a distance of, , from the corner, ? Refractive index of water is, .











is a point at which the axis of the lens intersects the mirror. The distance is . The angle which the mirror makes with the horizontal is,
