A transparent sphere of radius R and refractive index μ is kept in air. At what distance from the surface of the sphere should a point object be placed so as to form a real image at the same distance from the sphere?(a) R/μ(b) μR(c) R / μ - 1 (d) R / μ + 1 |
Answer» Correct Answer is: (c) R / μ - 1 From symmetry, the rays must pass through the sphere, parallel to the optic axis. Using μ2/v - μ1/u = μ2 - μ1 / r μ/∞ - 1/u = μ - 1 / R u = - R / μ - 1. |
