An object is placed at the following distance from a convex lens of focal length 15cm:
35cm
30cm
20cm
10cm
Which position of the object will produce:
A magnified real image?
A magnified virtual image?
A diminished real image?
An image of same size as the object?

The object should be placed at 20cm because a convex mirror forms a real, magnified image when an object is placed between f and 2f.
The object should be placed at 10cm because a convex mirror forms a virtual, magnified image when an object is placed placed between f(focus) and the optic centre
The object should be placed at 35cm because a convex mirror forms a real, diminished image when an object is placed beyond 2f.
The object should be placed at 30cm because a convex mirror forms a real image of the same size when an object is placed at 2f.

The refractive index of water with respect to vacuum is $\frac{4}{3}$ and refractive index of vacuum with respect to glass is $\frac{2}{3}$ If the speed the speed of light in glass is $2 \times 10^8 ms^{-1}$, find the speed of light in (i) vacuum, (ii) water.
Light travels through air at 300 million $ms ^{-1}$. On entering water it slows down to 225 million $ms ^{-1}$. Calculate the refractive index of water.
Light enters from air into diamond which has a refractive index of 2.42. Calculate the speed of light in diamond. The speed of light in air is $3.0 \times 10^8 ms^{-1}$.
