To solve the problem of determining the position of the image of the letter "O" when viewed through a fish bowl filled with liquid, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a fish bowl with a diameter of 20 cm filled with a liquid of refractive index 1.4. The letter "O" is written on the outer surface of the bowl, and we need to find the position of the image formed when viewed from the opposite side. ### Step 2: Identify Given Values - Diameter of the fish bowl = 20 cm - Radius (R) = Diameter / 2 = 20 cm / 2 = 10 cm ...
