A thin equiconvex lens of glass` ( mu = 1.5)` with radius of curvature 4m is placed on a horizontal plane mirror. When the space between the lens and mirror is filled with a liquid, an object held at a distance 6m vertically above the lens is found to coincide with its own image. What is the refractive index of the liquid.

A thin equiconvex glass lens (mu_(1) = 1.5) of radius of curvature 'R' and a thin plano-concave lens (mu_(2) = 1.4) are kept in contact and the plane surface is silvered. This lens system is placed in air. When a point object is placed at a distance 20 cm from the lens system on its principal axis, the image formed by the lens system coincides with the object. Then the value of radius of curvature 'R' is

In figure , L is half part of an equiconvex glass lens (mu=1.5) whose surfaces have radius of curvature R =40cm and its right surface is silvered .
