When the same monochromatic ray of light travels through a glass slab and through water,the number of waves in a glass slab of thickness $6 \ cm$ is the same as in a water column of height $7 \ cm$. If the refractive index of glass is $1.5$,then the refractive index of water is:

  • A
    $1.258$
  • B
    $1.269$
  • C
    $1.286$
  • D
    $1.31$

$A$ beaker containing liquid is placed on a table,underneath a microscope which can be moved along a vertical scale. The microscope is focused,through the liquid,onto a mark on the table when the reading on the scale is $a$. It is next focused on the upper surface of the liquid and the reading is $b$. More liquid is added and the observations are repeated,the corresponding readings are $c$ and $d$. The refractive index of the liquid is

When a convex lens is placed above an empty tank, the image of a mark at the bottom of the tank, which is $45 \ cm$ from the lens, is formed $36 \ cm$ above the lens. When a liquid is poured in the tank to a depth of $40 \ cm$, the distance of the image of the mark above the lens is $48 \ cm$. The refractive index of the liquid is
