A paraxial beam of light is incident on the arrangement as shown . The two spherical surfaces are very close and each has a radius of curvature . Find the point where the rays are focussed (with respect to point of entry).


Important Questions on Ray Optics

A point object is placed in front of a glass rod having spherical end of radius of curvature The image would be formed at

A glass hemisphere of radius made up of material with a refractive index is placed centrally over a cross mark on a paper
(i) with the flat face
(ii) with the curved face in contact with the paper.
In each case, the cross mark is viewed directly from above. The position of the images will be


The slab of a material of refractive index , as shown in the figure, has curved surface of radius of curvature and a plane surface . On the left of is air and on the right of is water with refractive indices as given in the figure. An object is placed at a distance of from pole as shown. The distance of the final image of from as viewed from the left is


In a thin spherical fish bowl of radius filled with water of refractive index , there is a small fish at a distance of from the centre as shown in the figure. Where will the image of fish appear, if seen from ?

The observer sees the distance as infinitely large. If the refractive index of the liquid is and that of glass is then is
