To find the actual width of the glass slab with an air bubble trapped inside, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem We have a rectangular glass slab with an air bubble inside. The bubble appears at a distance of 2 cm from one side and at 3 cm from the opposite side. The refractive index of glass is given as 1.5. ### Step 2: Define the variables Let: - \( t \) = actual thickness of the glass slab ...
