A point source S is placed at the bottom of a transparent block of height 10 mm and refractive index 2.72. It is immersed in a lower refractive index liquid as shown in the figure. It is found that the light emerging from the block to the liquid forms a circular bright spot of diameter 11.54 mm on the top of the block. The refractive index of the liquid is

  1. A 1.21
  2. B 1.3
  3. C 1.36
  4. D 1.42
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 1.36

Step-by-step Solution
