An object 240 cm in front of a lens forms a sharp image on a screen 12 cm behind the lens. A glass slab 1 cm thick, having refractive index 1.50 is placed between the lens and the screen with its refracting faces perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens.
(a) By how much distance the object must be moved so as to again cast a sharp image on the screen?
(b) Another identical glass slab is interposed between the object and the lens. How much further the object shall be moved so as to form a sharp image on the screen.

A point object O is placed at a distance of 41 cm from a convex lens of focal length f = 20 cm on its principal axis. A glass slab of thickness 3 cm and refractive index mu = 1.5 is placed between the lens and the object with its faces perpendicular to the principal axis of the lens. Image of the object is formed at point I_(1) . Now the glass slab is tilted by an angle of theta = 1° (as shown in the Figure) and the final image is formed at I_(2) . Calculate the distance between points I_(1) and I_(2) . Consider only paraxial rays for the lens and near normal incidence for the glass slab.
