A converging beam of rays is incident on a diverging lens. Having passed through the lens the rays intersect at a point \(15~\text{cm}\) from the lens on the opposite side. If the lens is removed the point where the rays meet will move \(5\) cm closer to the lens. The focal length of the lens is:
1. \(-10\) cm 2. \(20\) cm
3. \(-30\) cm 4. \(5\) cm

The speed of light in media \(M_1\) and \(M_2\) is \(1.5\times 10^{8}~\text{m/s}\) and \(2.0\times 10^{8}~\text{m/s}\) respectively. A ray of light enters from medium \(M_1\) to \(M_2\) at an incidence angle \(i\). If the ray suffers total internal reflection, the value of \(i\) is:
1. equal to \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)\)
2. equal to or less than \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)\) 
3. equal to or greater than \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)\)
