The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Structures**: The question asks about the space between two specific structures in the eye: the cornea and the lens. 2. **Understand the Anatomy**: The eye has several chambers. The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye, while the lens is located behind the iris. 3. **Define the Chambers**: - The **anterior chamber** is the space between the cornea and the iris. - The **posterior chamber** is the space between the iris and the lens. - The **vitreous chamber** is the large space behind the lens filled with vitreous humor. - The **canal of Schlemm** is a circular channel in the eye that collects aqueous humor from the anterior chamber. 4. **Determine the Correct Answer**: Since the question specifically asks for the space between the cornea and the lens, we need to clarify that the anterior chamber is actually between the cornea and the iris, while the space between the iris and the lens is referred to as the posterior chamber. 5. **Final Answer**: The space between the cornea and the lens is called the **posterior chamber**. ---

On a horizontal plane mirror, a thin equiconvex lens of glass is placed and when the space between the lens and mirror is filled with a liquid, an object held at a distance D which is 30cm vertically above the lens is found to coincide with its own image as shown in Figure. If equiconvex lens of glass has refractive index mu=1.5 and radius of curvature R=20cm then find refractive index of the liquid.

A thin bi-convex lens made up of glass of refractive index 3//2 is placed is front of a plane mirror. The space between the lens and the mirror is filled with water of refractive index 4//3 . The radii of curvatures of the lens are R_(1)=15cm and R_(2)=25 cm . A point object is placed at distance x from the surface whose curvature is R_(1) . The distance x is greater than the separation between the lens and the mirror. Find the value of x so that image must coincide with the object.

A thin equiconvex lens of refractive index 3//2 is placed on a horizontal plane mirror as shown in figure. The space between the lens and the mirror is filled with a liquid of refractive index 4//3 . It is found that when a point object is placed 15 cm above the lens on its priincipal axis, the object coincides with its own image. Q. If another liquid is filled instead of water, the object and the image coincide at a distance 25 cm from the lens. Calculate the refractive index of the liquid.

A convex lens of focal length f is placed somewhere in between an object and a screen. The distance between the object and the screen is x . If the numerical value of the magnification produced by the lens is m , then the focal lnegth oof the lens is .

An small object is kept at 18cm from combination of a convex lens and plane mirror to get the image on object itself. Now the space between lens and mirror is filled with liquid of refractive index muL . Now we need to keep the object at 27cm to get the image on object. Find muL .
