A concave mirror is placed at the bottom of an empty tank with face upwards and axis vertical. When sunlight falls normally on the mirror, it is focused at distance of 32 cm from the mirror. If the tank is filled with water upto a height of 20 cm, then the sunlight will now get focussed at
(1) 16 cm above water level
(2) 9 cm above water level
(3) 24 cm below water level
(4) 9 cm below water level
The slab of a refractive index material equal to \(2\) shown in the figure has a curved surface \(APB\) of a radius of curvature of \(10~\text{cm}\) and a plane surface \(CD.\) On the left of \(APB\) is air and on the right of \(CD\) is water with refractive indices as given in the figure.
