Multiple Choice QuestionsA glass slab consists of thin uniform layers of progressively decreasing refractive indices RI (see figure) such that the RI of any layer is µ − m Δµ. Here, µ and Δµ denote the RI of 0th layer and the difference in RI between any two consecutive layers, respectively. The integer m =0, 1, 2, 3, ... denotes the numbers of the successive layers. A ray of light from the 0th layer enters the 1st layer at an angle of incidence of 30°. After undergoing the mth refraction, the ray emerges parallel to the interface. If µ = 1.5 and Δµ = 0.015, the value of m is

A plano-convex lens fits exactly into a plano-concave lens. Their plane surfaces are parallel to each other. If lenses are made of different materials of refractive indices µ1 and µ2 and R is the radius of curvature of the curved surface of the lenses, then the focal length of the combination is

An object is placed 30 cm away from a convex lens of focal length 10 cm and a sharp image is formed on a screen. Now a concave lens is placed in contact with the convex lens. The screen now has to be moved by 45 cm to get a sharp image again. The magnitude of focal length of the concave lens is (in cm)
