The apparent depth of a needle laying at the bottom of the tank, which is filled with water of refractive index `1.33` to a height of `12.5` cm is measured by a microscope to be `9.4 cm`. If water is replaced by a liquid of refractive index `1.63` upto the same height. What distance would the microscope have to be moved to focus on the needle again ?A. `1.73 cm`B. `2.13 cm`C. `1.5 cm`D. `2.9 cm` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A Apparent depth `= ("Real depth")/(.^(@)mu_(l))` Here, Real depth `= 12.5 cm` and `.^(a)mu_(l) = 1.63` `:.` Apparent depth `= (12.5)/(1.63) = 7.67 cm` Now the microsphere will have to shift from its initial position to focus `9.4 cm` depth object to focus `7.67 cm` depth object. Shift distance `= 9.4 - 7.67 = 1.73 cm` |
