A point source is at a distance 35 cm on the optical axis from a spherical concave mirror having a focal length 25 cm. At what distance measured along the optical axis from the concave mirror should a plane mirror (perpendicular to principal axis) be placed for the image it forms (due to rays falling on it after reflection from the concave mirror) to coincide with the point source?

Two spherical mirrors (convex and concave) having the same focal length of 36 cm are arranged as shown in the figure so that their optical axes coincide. The separation between the mirrors is 1 m. At what distance from the concave mirror should an object be placed so that its images formed by the concave and convex mirrors independently are identical in size?

In the given figure, rays incident on an interface would converge 10 cm below the interface if they continued to move in straight lines without bending. But due to refraction, the rays will bend and meet some where else. Find the distance of meeting point of refracted rays below the interface, assuming that the rays to be making small angles with the normal to the interface.

A fish is rising up vertically inside a pond with velocity 4 cm s-1 and notices a bird which is diving vertically downward along the same vertical line as that of fish and its velocity appears to be 16 cm s-1 (to the fish). What is the real velocity of the diving bird, if refractive index of water is 4/3?
