Three immiscible liquids of densities d 1 d 2 d 3 and refractive indices μ 1 μ 2 μ 3 are put in a beaker. The height of each liquid column is . A dot is made at the bottom of the beaker. For near normal vision, find the apparent depth of the dot.

Question

Three immiscible liquids of densities d 1 > d 2 > d 3 and refractive indices μ 1 > μ 2 > μ 3 are put in a beaker. The height of each liquid column is . A dot is made at the bottom of the beaker. For near normal vision, find the apparent depth of the dot.

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Suppose the real depth of dot is d₁ under liquid. Suppose apparent depth is x₁.

So, x₁ ; x₂ ; x₃

So, x₁+x₂+x₃

So,

Three immiscible liquids of densities d1 > d2 > d3 and refractive indices μ1 > μ2 > μ3 are put in a beaker. The height of each liquid column is . A dot is made at the bottom of the beaker. For near normal vision, find the apparent depth of the dot.
