Assertion: In front of a concave mirror a point object is placed between focus and centre of curvature. If a glass slab is placed between object and mirror, then an image from the mirror may become virtual.

Reason: Glass slab always makes a virtual image of a real object.

A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index n1=1.4 is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius R at one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index n2=1.5, as shown in the figure. Rays of light parallel to the axis of the cylinder traversing through the film from air to glass get focused at distance f1 from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance f2 from the film. Then,

A point source S is placed at the bottom of a transparent block of height 10 mm and refractive index 2.72. It is immersed in a lower refractive index liquid as shown in the figure. It is found that the light emerging from the block to the liquid forms a circular bright spot of diameter 11.54 mm on the top of the block. The refractive index of the liquid is
