A converging beam of rays is incident on a diverging lens. Having passed through the lens the rays intersect at a point \(15~\text{cm}\) from the lens on the opposite side. If the lens is removed the point where the rays meet will move \(5\) cm closer to the lens. The focal length of the lens is:
1. \(-10\) cm 2. \(20\) cm
3. \(-30\) cm 4. \(5\) cm

The speed of light in media \(M_1\) and \(M_2\) is \(1.5\times 10^{8}~\text{m/s}\) and \(2.0\times 10^{8}~\text{m/s}\) respectively. A ray of light enters from medium \(M_1\) to \(M_2\) at an incidence angle \(i\). If the ray suffers total internal reflection, the value of \(i\) is:
1. equal to \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)\)
2. equal to or less than \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)\) 
3. equal to or greater than \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)\)
4. less than \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)\)

A boy is trying to start a fire by focusing sunlight on a piece of paper using an equiconvex lens of focal length \(10\) cm. The diameter of the sun is \(1.39\times 10^9~\text{m}\) and its mean distance from the earth is \(1.5\times 10^{11}~\text{m}.\) What is the diameter of the sun's image on the paper?
1. \( 9.2 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m} \)
2. \(6.5 \times 10^{-4}~\text{m} \)
3. \(6.5 \times 10^{-5}~\text{m} \)
