Find the apparent depth and apparent shi...

Find the apparent depth and apparent shift of an object placed at the bottom of the vessel containing a glass slap of thickness 10 cm and water of height 50 cm. as shown in the figure.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Apparent depth = `50/n_(w) + 10/n_(g) = 50/(4//3) + 10/(3//2) = (75/2 + 20/3) cm = 44.17 cm`
`therefore` Apparent shift = (50+ 10 - 44.17) cm = 15.83 cm.
