Light from a point source in air falls on a spherical glass surface. If `mu = 1.5`, and radius of curvature `= 20 cm`, the distance of light source from the glass surface is `100 cm` , at what position will the image be formed ? (NCERT Solved Example)

Explanation

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for refraction at a spherical surface. The formula is:

\[ \frac{\mu_2}{V} - \frac{\mu_1}{U} = \frac{\mu_2 - \mu_1}{R} \]

Where:
- \(\mu_1\) is the refractive index of the medium from which light is coming (air in this case, \(\mu_1 = 1\)).
