Consider the situation in figure. The bottom of the pot is a reflecting plane mirror, S is a small fish and T is a human eye. Refractive index of water is mu. (a) At what distance(s) from itself will the fish see the image(s) of the eye ? (b) At what distance(s) from itself will the eye see the image(s) of the fish.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C, D
As shown in given ure
`(sin45^@)/(sinr)=2/1`
`rarr sinr=(sin45^&@)/(sinr)=1/(2sqrt2))`
`rarr r=21^@`
`:. theta =(45^@-21^0)`
`=24^@=0.406xxABsin24^@`
`(AE)/(cos21^@)xx0.406`
`=(1,41xx0.406)/0.93=0.63cm`

Consider the situation in figure. The bottom of the pot is reflecting plane mirror , S is small fish is a human eye . Refractive index of water is mu . Fish can see two images of human eye , first due to refractive only and other due to refraction and than reflection . Distance of these images from fish are S_(1) "and" S_(2) respectively . Human eye can also see the two images of fish, first due to refraction only and other due to reflection and then refraction . Distance of these images from human eye are S_(3) "and" S_(4) respectively . Match the quantities of column-I (with their value in column-(II) {:("Column I","Column II"),((A) S_(1),(p)H[1 + (1)/(2mu)]),((B)S_(2),(q) H[mu + (1)/(2)]),((C)S_(3) , (r) H[1 + (3)/(2mu)]) , ((D) S_(4) , (s) H[mu + (3)/(2)]):}
