$A$ beaker of radius $r$ is filled with water (refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$) up to a height $H$ as shown in the figure. The beaker is kept on a horizontal table rotating with angular speed $\omega$. This makes the water surface curved so that the difference in the height of the water level at the center and at the circumference of the beaker is $h$ $(h \ll H, h \ll r)$,as shown in the figure. Take this surface to be approximately spherical with a radius of curvature $R$. Which of the following is/are correct? ($g$ is the acceleration due to gravity)
$(A)$ $R=\frac{h^2+r^2}{2 h}$
$(B)$ $R=\frac{r^2}{2 h}$
$(C)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{4}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{4 g}\right)^{-1}$
$(D)$ Apparent depth of the bottom of the beaker is close to $\frac{3 H}{2}\left(1+\frac{\omega^2 H}{2 g}\right)^{-1}$

$A$ concave mirror and a converging lens (glass with $\mu = 1.5$) both have a focal length of $3 \, cm$ when in air. When they are in water $\left( \mu = \frac{4}{3} \right)$,what are their new focal lengths?

$A$ glass beaker has a solid,plano-convex base of refractive index $1.60$,as shown in the figure. The radius of curvature of the convex surface $(SPU)$ is $9 \ cm$,while the planar surface $(STU)$ acts as a mirror. This beaker is filled with a liquid of refractive index $n$ up to the level $QPR$. If the image of a point object $O$ at a height of $h$ ($OT$ in the figure) is formed onto itself,then which of the following option$(s)$ is (are) correct?
$(A)$ For $n=1.42, h=50 \ cm$
$(B)$ For $n=1.35, h=36 \ cm$
$(C)$ For $n=1.45, h=65 \ cm$
$(D)$ For $n=1.48, h=85 \ cm$

$A$ small piece of wire bent into an $L$ shape with upright and horizontal portions of equal lengths,is placed with the horizontal portion along the axis of a concave mirror whose radius of curvature is $10 \, cm$. If the bend is $20 \, cm$ from the pole of the mirror,then the ratio of the lengths of the images of the upright and horizontal portions of the wire is:
