उत्तर
`bb(5/3)` cm inside
Explanation:
The refractive index of the marble is 1.5.
One can see the image formed due to the reflection in the spheres.
In order to determine the distance where the image will form, use the lens maker formula.
Hence, `mu_1/v - mu_2/u = (mu_2 - mu_1)/"R"`
Where, refractive index of air = 1, refractive index of glass = 1.5, Radius of the curvature = 1.5 cm
Substituting the values, we get,
`therefore 1/v - 1.5/0.75 = (1 - 1.5)/1.5`
`therefore 1/v - 2 = - 0.5/1.5`
`therefore 1/v - 2 = - 1/3`
`therefore 1/v = - 1/3 + 2`
`therefore 1/v = (- 1 + 6)/3`
`therefore 1/v = 5/3`
Therefore, the tiny bubble will be seen 5/3 cm inside when we see it from the outside.

One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.
