Question

A printed page is kept pressed by a glass cube of refractive index 1.5 and of age 9 cm by what amount will the printed letters appeared to be shifted when viewed from the top

Answer 1

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

d = 3 cm

● Explaination -

# Given -

n = 1.5

t = 9 cm = 0.09 m

# Solution -

Lateral shifting of the letters is calculated by -

d = t (1 - 1/n)

Substituting values,

d = 0.09 (1 - 1/1.5)

d = 0.03 m

d = 3 cm

Therefore, the printed letters appeared to be shifted for 3 cm.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
