An observer can see through a pin-hole the top end of a thin rod of height h, placed as shown in the figure. The height of beaker is 3h and its radius is h. When the beaker is filled with a liquid up to a height 2h , he can see the lower end of the rod. Then the refractive index of the liquid is

An observer can see through a small hole on the side of a jar (radius 15 cm) at a point at height of 15 cm from the bottom (see figure). The hole is at a height of 45 cm. When the jar is filled with a liquid up to a height of 30 cm the same observer can see the edge at the bottom of the jar. If the refractive index of the liquid is N//100 , where N is an integer, the value of N is ___________.
