In Young's experiment, the upper slit is covered by ·a thin glass plate of refractive index 1.4 while the lower slit is covered by another glass plate having the same thickness as the first one but having refractive index 1.7. Intederence pattern is observed using light of wavelength 5400\(\mathring { A } \). It is observed that the point P on the screen where the central maximum (n = 0) fell before the glass were inserted now has \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \) th original intensity. It is further observed that what used to be the fifth maximum earlier, lies below the point P while the sixth minimum lies above P. Calculate the thickness of the glass plate.

An object is placed 40 cm from a convex lens of focal length 30 cm. If a concave lens of focal length 50 cm is introduced between the convex lens and the image formed such that it is 20 cm from the convex lens, find the change in the position of the image.
-
If the focal lengths of the objective and eyepiece of a microscope are 2 cm and 5 cm respectively and the distance between them is 20 cm, what is the distance of the object from the objective when the image seen by the eye is 25 cm from eyepiece? Also find the magnifying power.
