Chromatic aberration of a lens can be corrected by

(1) Reducing its apperture

(2) Proper polishing of its surfaces

(3) Suitable combining it with another lens

(4) Providing different suitable curvature to its surfaces

A plane mirror is placed at the bottom of a fish tank filled with water of refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$. The fish is at a height 10 cm above the plane mirror. An observer O is situated vertically above the fish outside. The apparent distance between fish and its image for the observer is-

1.  15 cm

2.  30 cm

3.  35 cm

4.  45 cm

If one surface of a biconvex lens is silvered, then it behaves as

(2) A concave mirror of focal length $\frac{R}{2\mu }$

(3) A convex mirror of focal length $\frac{R}{4\mu -2}$

(4) A concave mirror of focal length $\frac{R}{2\mu -2}$

An astronomical telescope has an angular magnification of 20 in its normal adjustment. The focal length of the eyepiece is 4 cm. Distance between objective and eyepiece is :

3.  76 cm

4.  90 cm

A liquid of refractive index $\frac{4}{3}$ is placed between two identical planoconvex-lenses touching each other at their spherical surfaces of radius R. If the refractive index of the lens is 1.50, then the lens behaves

(2) Convergent with power P=$\frac{1}{6R}$

(3) Divergent with power P=$\frac{1}{3R}$

(4) Divergent with power P=$\frac{1}{6R}$

The thickness of a plano-convex glass lens in the middle is 1.5 cm. Viewing from the flat side the thickness of the lens at the centre will appear (refractive index of glass is 1.5) to be

3.  2 cm

4.  0.5 cm

A lens of focal length $f_a$ in air consists of a glass of refractive index ${\mu }_g$. If $f_l$ is its focal length in a liquid of refractive index ${\mu }_l$, then for ${\mu }_l={\mu }_g$ :

(2) $\infty >f_l>f_a$

(3) $0<f_l<f_a$

(4) $f_l=\infty$
