An object is placed directly below a glass block of thickness 3.0cm. Calculate the lateral displacement of the object if the refractive index of the glass is 1.5.
- A. 1.0cm
- B. 1.5cm
- C. 2.0cm
- D. 2.5cm
Correct Answer: A. 1.0cm
Explanation
1.5 = \(\frac{3}{\text {apparent displacement}}\)
Apparent depth = 2cm
displacement = 3 - 2
= 1cm
