A fish in water sees an object which is `24cm` above the surface of water. The height of the object above the surface of water that will appear to the flash is `(mu=4//3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Image outside appears bigger and farther so, its `24mu=24xx4//3=32cm`.

A bird in air looks at a fish vertically below it and inside water. h_(1) is the height of the bird above the surface of water and h_(2) , the depth of the fish below the surface of water. If refractive index of water with respect to air be mu , then the distance of the fish as observed by the bird is

A diver under water sees a bird in air, vertically above him. If the actual, height of the bird above the water surface is 'h' , then does it appear at the same height 'h' to the diver ?
