$A$ glass beaker is filled with water up to $5 \,cm$. It is kept on top of a $2 \,cm$ thick glass slab. When a coin at the bottom of the glass slab is viewed at normal incidence from above the beaker,its apparent depth from the water surface is $d \,cm$. The value of $d$ is close to ........ $cm$ (the refractive indices of water and glass are $1.33$ and $1.5$,respectively).

The figure shows a ray of light entering and passing through a dense glass slab and emerging from the other side. If the angle of incidence $i=60^{\circ}$, slab thickness $b=0.04 \text{ m}$, and the refractive index of glass $\mu=\sqrt{3}$, the parallel shift $d$ between the emerging and entering rays in $\text{mm}$ is:

$A$ light ray is incident on a glass slab of thickness $4 \sqrt{3} \text{ cm}$ and refractive index $\sqrt{2}$. The angle of incidence is equal to the critical angle for the glass slab with air. The lateral displacement of the ray after passing through the glass slab is . . . . . . $\text{cm}$. (Given $\sin 15^{\circ} = 0.25$)

Consider the situation shown in the figure. Water $\left( \mu_w = \frac{4}{3} \right)$ is filled in a beaker up to a height of $10 \, cm$. $A$ plane mirror is fixed at a height of $5 \, cm$ from the surface of the water. The distance of the image from the mirror after reflection of an object $O$ at the bottom of the beaker is......$cm$.

$A$ glass slab has a thickness $t$ and a refractive index $\mu$. Calculate the time taken by light to travel through this thickness.

Some water is filled in a container of height $30 \, cm$. If it is to appear half-filled to the observer when viewed from the top of the container, the height up to which water should be filled in it is [Refractive index of water $= \frac{4}{3}$] (in $cm$)
