A mark at the bottom of a liquid appears to rise by `0.1m`. The depth of the liquid is `1m`. The refractive index of the liquid is

A

1.33

B

`9//10`

C

`(10)/(9)`

D

`1.5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Real depth = 1m
Apparent depth = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9 m
Refractive index, `mu=("Real depth")/("Apparent depth")`
`=(1)/(0.9)=(10)/(9)`
