If sunlight is focused on a paper using convex lens, it starts burning the paper in shortest time when the lens is kept at \(30~\text{cm}\) above the paper. If the radius of curvature of the lens is \(60~\text{cm}\) then the refractive index of the lens material is \(\dfrac {\alpha}{10}.\) The value of \(\alpha\) is:
1. \(10\)
2. \(20\)
3. \(30\)
4. \(40\)

A compound microscope is designed with two symmetric biconvex lenses. The objective lens is cut vertically, creating two identical plano-convex lenses. One of them is used in place of original objective lens. To retain same magnification keeping the object distance unchanged, the tube length has to be: 
1. increased two times
2. increased times \(\dfrac{3}{2}\) times
3. decreased two times
4. decreased times \(\dfrac{3}{2}\)
