A fish looking up through the water sees the outside world contained in a circular horizon. If the refractive index of water is `4//3` and the fish is `12cm` below the surface, the radius of this circle in cm isA. `36sqrt5`B. `4sqrt5`C. `36sqrt7`D. `36//sqrt7`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Consider the above diagram
`R/h=tanC=(sinC)/(cosC)=(1//mu)/(sqrt(1-1/mu^2))=(1)/(sqrt(mu^2-1))`
`R=(h)/(sqrt(mu^2-1))=(12)/(sqrt((4/3)^2-1))=(12xx3)/(sqrt7)=(36)/(sqrt7)cm`
