In the figure shown here,a point object $O$ is placed in air. $A$ spherical boundary separates various media with a radius of curvature $2.0 \, m$. $AB$ is the principal axis. The refractive index above $AB$ is $1.6$ and below $AB$ is $2.0$. The separation between the images formed due to refraction at the spherical surface is

  • A
    zero
  • B
    infinity
  • C
    $12 \, m$
  • D
    $10 \, m$

Two transparent media having refractive indices $1.0$ and $1.5$ are separated by a spherical refracting surface of radius of curvature $30\,cm$. The centre of curvature of the surface is towards the denser medium and a point object is placed on the principal axis in the rarer medium at a distance of $15\,cm$ from the pole of the surface. The distance of the image from the pole of the surface is .......$cm$.
