An air bubble in glass slab of refractive index 1.5 (near normal incidence) is 5 cm deep when viewed from one surface and 3 cm deep when viewed from the opposite face. The thickness of the slab is,

A

8 cm

B

10 cm

C

12 cm

D

16 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
Let `d_(1) = 5 cm and d_(2) = 3 cm , n = 1.5`
Actual width is the sum of real depth from 2 sides
Thickness of slab `= d_d(1)n + d_(2)n`
`=(5 xx 1.5) + (3 xx 1.5) = 12 cm`
