A point object is placed at the centre of a glass sphere of radius 6cm and refractive index 1.5. The distance of virtual image from the surface is

A

2 cm

B

4 cm

C

6 cm

D

12 cm.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Light rays from object will fall normally on the surface of sphere and hence will not suffer any deviation, so object will appear at the same place from the surface. Centre is 6 cm from the surface which is radius of sphere and hence, option (c) is correct.
