Question
You sight along the rim of a glass with vertical sides so that the top rim is lined up with the opposite edge of the bottom (Fig.a). The glass is a thin-walled, hollow cylinder 16.0 cm high. The diameter of the top and bottom of the glass is 8.0 cm. While you keep your eye in the same position, a friend fills the glass with a transparent liquid, and you then see a dime that is lying at the center of the bottom of the glass (Fig.b). What is the index of refraction of the liquid?

- The kitten, Simba (Fig. A) and the kitten, Bella (Fig. B) are inspecting a goldfish swimming inside a round aquarium filled with water (nwater = 1.33). The magnitude of the radius of the round surface of the aquarium is 16 cm. The kittens are in air (nair=1.00). In order to calculate the apparent depth of the fish as viewed by the kittens, you need to use the equation shown in Fig. C. Identify the following (Please note that I am not asking you to do the calculation) n₁ P Fig. A + n₂ 9 = (n₂-n₁) R Fig. C Fig. A: n₁ = Fig. B: n₁ = ; n₂ = _; n₂ = Fig. B ; R = ; R =arrow_forwardCan you help me with the wrong.
