Given the diameter of class 10 cm. A beam of light strikes the sphere which converges at a point 20 cm behind the pole of spherical surface. Find position of image of mu equals to 1.5.
We are given v = + 30 (sphere that converges behind the pole of spherical surface) .We know that μ2 / v – μ1 / u = μ2 – μ1 / R

Answer:
The position of the final image from the pole of the sphere surface is 30cm.
Explanation:
We will use the following formula to solve this question. Which is given as,
(1)
Where,
μ₁=the medium in which the light is present
μ₂=the medium in which the light has to travel
v=image distance
u=object distance
R=radius of the sphere
From the question we have,
μ₁=1 (considering medium 1 as air)
μ₂=1.5 (as the sphere is made up of glass)
The diameter of the sphere=10cm
So, the radius is=5cm
The object distance=20cm
By substituting the values in equation (1) we get;
As a result, the final image's distance from the sphere's pole is 30cm.
