In a thick glass slab of thicknes l, and refractive index `n_(1)`, a cuboidal cavity of thickness 'm' is carved as shown in figure, and is filled with a liquid of `R.I. n_(2)(n_(1)gtn_(2)).` The ratio `l//m`, so that shift produced by this slab is zero when an observer A observes an object B with paraxial rays is

A

`(n_(1)-n_(2))/(n_(2)-n_(1))`

B

`(n_(1)-n_(2))/(n_(2)(n_(1)-1))`

C

`(n_(1)-n_(2))/(n_(1)-1)`

D

`(n_(1)-n_(2))/(n_(1)(n_(2-1))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b.

Shift `=(l-m)(1-(1)/(n_(1)))+m(1-(1)/(n_(2)))=0`

A light passes through glass slabv of refractive index 1.5 and thickness 2 mm. How much time ray will take to pass through the glass slab ?

A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index n_(1) =1.4 is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius R at one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index n_(2) =1.5 , as shown in the figure. Rays of light parallel to the axis of the cylinder traversing through the film from air to glass get focused at distance f_(1) from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance f_(2) from the film, Then
