A ray of light is incident on a mirror which is lying on the \(x\text-y\) plane. The reflected ray travels along the direction of the vector \(3\hat i-4\hat j+2\hat k.\) The incident ray must be along:
1. \(-3\hat i+4\hat j+2\hat k\) 2. \(3\hat i-4\hat j-2\hat k\)
3. \(-3\hat i-4\hat j+2\hat k\) 4. \(-3\hat i+4\hat j-2\hat k\)

An observer is using an astronomical refracting telescope to observe planets in normal adjustment. The focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece used in the telescope construction are \(20​​\text{m}\) and \(2​​\text{cm}\) respectively. Consider the following statements about the telescope:
(a) the distance between the objective and the eyepiece is \(20.02​​\text{m}.\)
(b) the magnification of the telescope is \(-1000\).
(c) the image of the planet is erect and diminished.
(d) the aperture of the eyepiece is smaller than that of the objective.
 
The correct statements are:
1. (a), (b), and (c) 2. (b), (c), and (d)
3. (c), (d), and (a) 4. (a), (b), and (d)

A beam of light is incident vertically on a glass slab of thickness \(1~\text{cm},\) and refractive index \(1.5.\) A fraction \(A\) is reflected from the front surface while another fraction \(B\) enters the slab and emerges after reflection from the back surface. The time delay between them is:

1. \(10^{-10}~\text{s}\) 2. \(5\times 10^{-10}~\text{s}\)
3. \(10^{-11}~\text{s}\) 4. \(5\times 10^{-11}~\text{s}\)
