NEET Physics Refraction MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

A vessel of depth 'd' is half filled with oil of refractive index n₁ and the other half is filled with water of refractive index n₂. The apparent depth of this vessel when viewed from above will be-

A

dn₁n₂/(n₁ + n₂)

B

d(n₁ + n₂)/2n₁n₂

C

dn₁n₂/2(n₁ + n₂)

D

2d(n₁ + n₂)/n₁n₂

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The apparent depth is calculated using the formula for apparent depth in a medium, considering the refractive indices of both oil and water.
