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
An observer can see through a pinhole the top end of a thin rod of height h, placed as shown in the figure. The beaker height is 3h and its radius h. When the beaker is filled with a liquid up to a height 2h, he can see the lower end of the rod. Then the refractive index of the liquid is
