Given below are two statements :
Statement I: Image formation needs regular reflection and/or refraction.
Statement II: The variety in colour of objects we see around us is due to the constituent colours of the light incident on them.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

A short straight object of height \(100 \mathrm{~cm}\) lies before the central axis of a spherical mirror whose focal length has absolute value \(|f|=40 \mathrm{~cm}\). The image of object produced by the mirror is of height \(25 \mathrm{~cm}\) and has the same orientation of the object. One may conclude from the information:

An ice cube has a bubble inside. When viewed from one side the apparent distance of the bubble is \(12 \mathrm{~cm}\). when viewed from the opposite side, the apparent distance of the bubble is observed as \(4 \mathrm{~cm}\). If the side of the ice cube is \(24 \mathrm{~cm}\), the refractive index of the ice cube is;
