An air bubble in a glass slab with refractive index 1.5 (near normal incidence) is 5 cm deep when viewed from one surface and 3 cm deep when viewed from the opposite face. The thickness (in cm) of the slab is 8 10 12 16

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 8
  • B 10
  • C 12
  • D 16

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Seeing from one end, h 1 = _ _ (h � b) = 3/2 _ 5 = 15/2 cm From other end of the slab, h 2 = _ _ h = 3/2 _ 3 = 9/2 cm Now total height, (15/2 + 9/2) = 24/2 = 12 cm
