Three immiscible transparent liquids with uniform refractive indices 3 2 , 4 3 and 6 5 are arranged one on top of another. The depths of the liquids are 3 cm 4 cm and 6 cm respectively. The apparent depth of the vessel is
Options
- A10 cm
- B9 cm
- C8 cm
- D7 cm
Correct answer
A. 10 cm
Step-by-step solution
= Real depth (R) Apparent depth Apparent depth = R For vessel, aligned Apparent depth & = R₁ ₁ + R₂ ₂ + R₃ ₃ & = 3 3 / 2 + 4 4 / 3 + 6 6 / 5 & =2+3+5 Apparent depth & =10 ~cm aligned
