Question

The diagram shows five isosceles right angled prisms. A light ray incident at 90° at the first face emerges at same angle with the normal from the last face. Which of the following relations will hold regarding the refractive indices?

  1. mu subscript 1 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 3 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 5 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript equals mu subscript 2 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 4 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript    
  2. mu subscript 1 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 3 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 5 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript equals 1 plus mu subscript 2 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 4 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript    
  3. mu subscript 1 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 3 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 5 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript equals 2 plus mu subscript 2 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 4 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript    
  4. none    

The correct answer is: mu subscript 1 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 3 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 5 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript equals 2 plus mu subscript 2 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript plus mu subscript 4 end subscript superscript 2 end superscript

The diagram shows a silvered equiconvex lens. An object of length 1 cm has been placed in the front of the lens. What will be the final image properties? The refractive index of the lens is mu and the refractive index of the medium in which the lens has been placed is 2 mu. Both the surface have the radius R.

A concave mirror is placed on a horizontal surface and two thin uniform layers of different transparent liquids (which do not mix or interact) are formed on the reflecting surface. The refractive indices of the upper and lower liquids are mu subscript 1 end subscript and mu subscript 2 end subscript respectively. The bright point source at a height ‘d’ (d is very large in comparison to the thickness of the film) above the mirror coincides with its own final image. The radius of curvature of the reflecting surface therefore is
