A right cylindrical vessel of a given capacity is formed using least possible material.Then the ratio of the height to the radius of the base is

Two transparent slabs having equal thickness but different refractive indices mu_1 and mu_2 , are pasted side by side to form a composite slab. This slab is placed just after the double slit in a Young's experiment so that the light from one slit goes through one material and the light from the other slit goes through the other material. What should be the minimum thickness of the slab so that there is a minimum at the point P_0 which is equidistant from the slits ?

A cylindrical container is to be made from certain solid material with the following constraints: It has a fixed inner volume of V mm^3 , has a 2 mm thick solid wall and is open at the top. The bottom of the container is a solid circular disc of thickness 2 mm and is of radius equal to the outer radius of the container. If the volume of the material used to make the container is minimum when the inner radius of the container is 10 mm, then the value of V/(250 pi) is
