उत्तर

Let Real depth = x

∵ Refracture Index, μ = `"Real depth"/"Apparent depth"`

⇒ `4/3="x"/("x"-4)`

⇒ 4x − 16 = 3x

∴ x = 16 cm.

In your laboratory you trace the path of light rays through a glass slab for different values of angle of incidence (∠i) and in each case measure the values of the corresponding angle of refraction (∠r) and angle of emergence (∠e). On the basis of your observations your correct conclusion is:

(a) ∠i is more than ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e

(b) ∠i is less then ∠r, but nearly equal to ∠e

(c) ∠i is more than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r

(d) ∠i is less than ∠e, but nearly equal to ∠r


A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (∠i). He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (∠r) and the angle of emergence (∠e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be

(A) ∠i > ∠r  > ∠e

(B) ∠i = ∠e  > ∠r

(C) ∠i < ∠r  < ∠e

(D) ∠i = ∠e  < ∠r
