A bubble in glass slab ( = 1.5) when viewed from one side appears at 5 cm and 2 cm from other side, then thickness of slab is
- 3.75 cm
- 3 cm
- 10.5 cm
- 2.5 cm.
Answer
(3) 10.5 cm
Solution
Apparent depth = real depth real depth = apparent depth
Real distance of the bubble from the first face = 1.5 5 = 7.5 cm
Real distance of the bubble from the other face = 1.5 2 = 3 cm
Thickness = 7.5 + 3 = 10.5 cm
