A microscope is focussed on an ink mark on th top of a table. If we place a glass slab of 3 cm thick on it, how should the microscope be moved to focus the ink spot again ? The refractive index of glass is 1.5.

Answer»

2 cm upwards
2 cm downwards
1 cm upwards
1 cm downwards

Solution :`(h_i)/(h_0)=(n_((AIR)))/(n_((Glass)))=(1)/(1.5)`
`therefore h_i=(1)/(1.5)xxh_0`
`=(1)/(1.5)xx3`
`therefore h_i=2` cm
`therefore` Microscope be moved =3-2=1 cm upward
