If the velocity of light in vacuum is $3 \times 10^{8} \text{ m/s}$, the time taken (in nanoseconds) to travel through a glass plate of thickness $10 \text{ cm}$ and refractive index $1.5$ is:

Two immiscible liquids of refractive indices $\frac{8}{5}$ and $\frac{3}{2}$ respectively are put in a beaker as shown in the figure. The height of each column is $6 \,cm$. $A$ coin is placed at the bottom of the beaker. For near normal vision,the apparent depth of the coin is $\frac{\alpha}{4} \,cm$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ flat glass slab of thickness $6\, cm$ and refractive index $1.5$ is placed in front of a plane mirror. An observer is standing behind the glass slab and looking at the mirror. The actual distance of the observer from the mirror is $50\, cm$. The distance of his image from himself,as seen by the observer is .......$cm$.
