A container contains a liquid with refractive index of 1.2 up to a height of 60 cm and another liquid having refractive index 1.6 is added to height H above first liquid. If viewed from above, the apparent shift in the position of bottom of container is 40 cm. The value of H is cm. (Consider liquids are immiscible)

When an object is placed 40 cm away from a spherical mirror an image of magnification 12 is produced. To obtain an image with magnification of 13, the object is to be moved :

1. 20 cm away from the mirror.
2. 20 cm towards the mirror.
3. 80 cm away from the mirror.
4. 40 cm away from the mirror.

Distance between object and its image (magnified by - 13) is 30 cm. The focal length of the mirror used is ( x4 )cm, where magnitude of value of x is .

A finite size object is placed normal to the principal axis at a distance of 30 cm from a convex mirror of focal length 30 cm. A plane mirror is now placed in such a way that the image produced by both the mirrors coincide with each other. The distance between the two mirrors is :

1. 45 cm
2. 15 cm
3. 22.5 cm
4. 7.5 cm
