$A$ glass tumbler having an inner depth of $17.5 \, cm$ is kept on a table. $A$ student starts pouring water $(\mu = 4/3)$ into it while looking at the surface of water from above. When he feels that the tumbler is half-filled,he stops pouring water. Up to what height,the tumbler is actually filled? (In $cm$)

  • A
    $11.7$
  • B
    $10$
  • C

The bottom of a container is a glass slab of thickness $4 \ cm$ and refractive index $\mu = 1.5$. The container contains two immiscible liquids $A$ and $B$ of depths $6 \ cm$ and $8 \ cm$ respectively. When a crack at the bottom surface of the glass slab is viewed from above,by what distance (in $cm$) does it appear to be shifted? The refractive indices of $A$ and $B$ are $1.4$ and $1.3$ respectively.
