(a) Given μ = 1.3
μ = \(\frac{Real\,depth}{Apparent\,depth}\)
1.3 = \(\frac{1.5}{Apparent\,depth}\)
Apparent depth = \(\frac{1.5}{1.3}\)
= 1.15 m
(b) n = \(\frac{Real\,depth}{Apparent\, depth}\)
1 = \(\frac{1.5}{Apparent\,depth}\) (n = 1 for air)
Apparent depth = 1.5 m
(C) When the rays of light from the coin travel from denses medium to rarer medium, the refracted ray band away from the normal The point from which the refracted rays appear to come gives the apparent position of the coin. Since the rays appear to come from a point above the coin, it appears to be raised. It appears raised from its position
(d)
(e) We know that
\((\frac h{h-1.5})=\mu\)
\((\frac h{h-1.5})=1.3\)
h = 1.3h - 1.95
0.3h = 1.95
h = \(\frac{1.95}{0.3}\)
h = 6.5 m
