A concave mirror is placed inside water ...

A concave mirror is placed inside water its shining surface upwards and principal axis vertical as shown in figure. Rays are incient parallel to the principal axis of the concave mirror. Find the position of the final image.

Verified by Experts

The incident rays will pass undeviated through the water surface and strike the mirror parallel to its principle axis. Thereofre for the mirror, object is at `oo`. Its image `A` (in figure) will be formed at foucus which is `20cm` form the mirror, Now that the interface between water and air, `d = 10cm`.
`:. d' = (d)/(((n_(W))/(n_(a)))) = (10)/(((4//3)/(1))) = 7.5cm`
