Optics 1 Question 1

1. A concave mirror has radius of curvature of 40cm. It is at the bottom of a glass that has water filled up to 5cm (see figure). If a small particle is floating on the surface of water, its image as seen, from directly above the glass, is at a distance d from the surface of water. The value of d is close to

[Refractive index of water =1.33 ]

(a) 6.7cm

(b) 13.4cm

(c) 8.8cm

Answer:

Correct Answer: 1. (c)

Solution:

  1. In the given case,

u=5cm

Focal length,

f=R2=402=20cm

Now, using mirror formula,

R=40cm

1v+1u=1f1v=1f1u

=120+15=+320

v=+203cm

For the light getting refracted at water surface, this image will act as an object.

So, distance of object, d=5cm+203cm=353cm

(below the surface). Let’s assume final image at distance d after refraction.
