JEE Main & Advanced Physics Ray Optics Question Bank Refraction of Light at Plane Surfaces

  • question_answer
    A vessel of depth 2d cm is half filled with a liquid of refractive index \[{{\mu }_{1}}\] and the upper half with a liquid of refractive index \[{{\mu }_{2}}\]. The apparent depth of the vessel seen perpendicularly is                                         [SCRA 1994]

    A)            \[d\,\left( \frac{{{\mu }_{1}}{{\mu }_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}+{{\mu }_{2}}} \right)\]       

    B)            \[d\,\left( \frac{1}{{{\mu }_{1}}}+\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{2}}} \right)\]

    C)            \[2d\,\left( \frac{1}{{{\mu }_{1}}}+\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{2}}} \right)\] 

    D)            \[2d\,\left( \frac{1}{{{\mu }_{1}}{{\mu }_{2}}} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[{h}'=\frac{{{d}_{1}}}{{{\mu }_{1}}}+\frac{{{d}_{2}}}{{{\mu }_{2}}}=d\left( \frac{1}{{{\mu }_{1}}}+\frac{1}{{{\mu }_{2}}} \right)\]
