A solid hemispherical bowl of radius R, ...

A solid hemispherical bowl of radius R, made of glass, is placed on a flat horizontal surface with its curved surface on the ground. A small object is placed under the hemisphere at the center of the curved surface. If an observer sees the object directly above the plane surface, Where will the object appear to be ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(1)/(v)-(mu)/(-R)=(1-mu)/(oo)rArr v=-(R)/(mu)`
So, image will be formed at a distance of `R//mu` below C.
