Frosted glass is widely used for translucent windows. The region where a transparent adhesive tape is stuck over the frosted glass becomes transparent. The most reasonable explanation for this is:

  • A
    diffusion of adhesive glue into glass
  • B
    chemical reaction at adhesive tape-glass interface
  • C
    refractive index of adhesive glue is close to that of glass
  • D
    adhesive tape is more transparent than glass

The refractive index of water in a biology laboratory tank varies as $1.33 + 0.002 / \lambda^2$,where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of light. Small pieces of organic matter of different colours are seen at the bottom of the tank using a travelling microscope. Then,the image of the organic matter appears

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength $\lambda_0$ (in vacuum) passes from $P$ towards $Q$ crossing three different media of refractive index $\mu, 2\mu$ and $3\mu$ respectively as shown in the figure. Let $\phi_P$ and $\phi_Q$ be the phase of the wave at points $P$ and $Q$. Find the phase difference $\phi_Q - \phi_P$. [Take: $\mu = 1$]
