प्रश्न
One end of a cylindrical glass rod (μ = 1.5) of radius 1.0 cm is rounded in the shape of a hemisphere. The rod is immersed in water (μ = 4/3) and an object is placed in the water along the axis of the rod at a distance of 8.0 cm from the rounded edge. Locate the image of the object.

उत्तर
Given,
Radius (R) of the cylindrical rod = 1.0 cm
Refractive index (μg) of the rod = 1.5 = \[\frac{3}{2}\] Refractive index (μw) of water = 4/3 
\[\frac{\mu_g}{v} - \frac{\mu_w}{u} = \frac{\mu_g - \mu_w}{R}\]
As per the question, u = −8 cm.
Now,
\[\frac{3}{2v} - \left( - \frac{4}{3 \times 8} \right) = \frac{\frac{3}{2} - \frac{4}{3}}{1}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{3}{2v} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{6}\]
\[ \Rightarrow v = \infty\]
Hence, the image will be formed at infinity (∞).

To a distant observer, the light appears to be coming from somewhere below the ground. The observer naturally assumes that light is being reflected from the ground, say, by a pool of water near the tall object. Such inverted images of distant tall objects cause an optical illusion to the observer. This phenomenon is called mirage. This type of mirage is especially common in hot deserts. Based on the above facts, answer the following question : |
