A travelling microscope is focused on a mark on a table. If a glass block of thickness 18.0cm is placed on the mark by how many centimeters will the microscope be moved upwards so as to focus the mark once again? [refractive index of glass = 1.5]
27cm
24cm
9cm
6cm
설명
Apparent depth = \(\frac{\text{thickness}}{\text{refractive index}}\)
= \(\frac{18}{1.5} = 12cm\)
Upward adjustment = 18 - 12
= 6cm
= \(\frac{18}{1.5} = 12cm\)
Upward adjustment = 18 - 12
= 6cm
