A rectangular block of glass ABCD has a refractive index 1.6. A pin is placed midway on the face AB (Figure). When observed from the face AD, the pin shall ______.
- appear to be near A.
- appear to be near D.
- appear to be at the centre of AD.
- not be seen at all.

उत्तर
a and d
Explanation:
As long as angle of incidence on AD of the ray emanating from the pin is less than the critical angle, the pin shall appear to be near A.
When angle of incidence on AD of the ray emanating from pins is greater than the critical angle, the light suffers from total internal reflection and cannot be seen through AD.

One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.
