Question

Consider the situation shown in figure. Water $\left( \mu _ { w } = \frac { 4 } { 3 } \right)$ is filled in a breaker upto a height of 10 cm. A plane mirror fixed at a height of 5 cm from the surface of water. Distance of image from the mirror after reflection from it of an object O at the bottom of the beaker is

Answer 1

Solution

From figure it is clear that object appears to be raised by

Hence distance between mirror and $O ^ { \prime } = 5 + 7.5 = 12.5 \mathrm {~cm}$

So final image will be formed at 12.5 cm behind the plane mirror.
