$A$ small coin is fixed at the centre of the base of an empty cylindrical steel container having radius $R=1 \,m$ and height $d=4 \,m$. At time $t=0$,the container starts getting filled with water at a flow rate of $Q=0.1 \,m^3/s$ without disturbing the coin. Find the approximate time $t$ in seconds when the coin will first be seen by the observer $O$ from a height of $H=5.75 \,m$ above and $L=1.5 \,m$ radially away from the coin as shown in the figure. (Take refractive index of water,$n=1.33$ or $4/3$)

$A$ ray of light travels from air to water to glass and again from glass to air. The refractive index of water with respect to air is '$X$', glass with respect to water is '$Y$', and air with respect to glass is '$Z$'. Which one of the following is correct?

$A$ light ray is incident on a spherical glass surface at an angle $\alpha$ and is refracted at an angle $\beta$. What is the angle of deviation between the emergent ray and the incident ray?

$A$,$B$ and $C$ are parallel-sided transparent media of refractive indices $n_{1}$,$n_{2}$ and $n_{3}$ respectively. They are arranged as shown in the figure. $A$ ray is incident at an angle $i$ on the surface of separation of $A$ and $B$. After refraction into medium $B$,the ray grazes the surface of separation of media $B$ and $C$. Then,$\sin i$ equals to
