In finding out the refractive index of a glass slab,the following observations were made through a travelling microscope: $50$ vernier scale divisions $= 49$ $MSD$; $20$ divisions on the main scale in each $cm$. For a mark on paper:
$MSR = 8.45 \ cm, VC = 26$
For the mark on paper seen through the slab:
$MSR = 7.12 \ cm, VC = 41$
For a powder particle on the top surface of the glass slab:
$MSR = 4.05 \ cm, VC = 1$
($MSR =$ Main Scale Reading,$VC =$ Vernier Coincidence)
The refractive index of the glass slab is:

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

Electromagnetic radiation of frequency $n$,wavelength $\lambda$,travelling with velocity $v$ in air,enters a glass slab of refractive index $\mu$. The frequency,wavelength,and velocity of light in the glass slab will be respectively:

$A$ bird is flying at $12 \ m$ height above the water surface and a fish is swimming $16 \ m$ below the water surface $(\mu_{\text{water}} = 4/3)$. Find the distance of the bird with respect to the fish as seen by the fish. (in $m$)

$A$ mixture of a pure liquid and a solution in a long vertical column (i.e., horizontal dimensions << vertical dimensions) produces diffusion of solute particles and hence a refractive index gradient along the vertical dimension. $A$ ray of light entering the column at right angles to the vertical is deviated from its original path. Find the deviation in travelling a horizontal distance $d << h$, where $h$ is the height of the column.
