A microscope is focused on a mark on a table, when the mark is covered by a plate of glass 2m thick, the microscope has to be raised 0.67cm for the mark to be once more in focus. Calculate the refractive index.
1.50
1.68
2.58
1.82

Explanation

R = th = 2cm, d = 0.67cm

n = R
A
= R
R.d
= 2
2-0.67
= 1.52
