Consider three converging lenses L1, L2 and L3 having identical geometrical construction. The index of refraction of L1 and L2 are μ1 and μ2, respectively. The upper half of the lens L3 has a refractive index μ1 and the lower half has μ2. A point object O imaged at O1 by the lens L1 and at O2 by the lens L2 placed in same position. If, L3 is placed at the same place,

Three glass cylinders of equal height H=30 cm and same refractive index n=1.5 are placed on a horizontal surface shown in figure. Cylinder I has a flat top, cylinder II has a convex top and cylinder III has a concave top. The radii of curvature of the two curved tops are same R=3 m. If H1,H2 and H3 are the apparent depths of a point X on the bottom of the three cylinders, respectively, the correct statement(s) is/are

A plano-convex lens is made of a material of refractive index n. When a small object is placed 30 cm away in front of the curved surface of the lens, an image of double the size of the object is produced. Due to reflection from the convex surface of the lens, another faint image is observed at a distance of 10 cm away from the lens. Which of the following statement(s) is (are) true?
