A small LED, emitting light is placed at x distance above a spherical glass of refractive index 1.5 and radius of curvature 30 cm. The image of the LED is formed at a distance of 150 cm away from the surface of sphere along the direction of incident light. Calculate the distance between LED light and the surface of spherical glass.

To solve the problem, we will use the lens maker's formula for refraction at a spherical surface. The formula we will use is: \[ \frac{n_2 - n_1}{R} = \frac{n_2}{v} - \frac{n_1}{u} \] Where: - \( n_1 \) = refractive index of the first medium (air) = 1 ...
