Detailed Solution

Apply Lens Maker’s Formula, we get 

1fair =32-11R1-1R2

1fwater =3/24/3-11R1-1R2

From these two equations we get, 

fwater =4fair =4f

In air, the image was inverted, real and magnified i.e., the object must be lying between f and 2f. Now the focal length has changed to 4f. Therefore, the object now lies between pole and focus and so the new image formed will be virtual and magnified. 

Hence, (1),(3) are correct.
