An empty tank has concave mirror as its bottom. When sunlight falls normally on the mirror, it is focussed at a height of \(32 \mathrm{~cm}\) from the mirror. If the tank is filled with water upto a height of \(20 \mathrm{~cm}\), then the sunlight focusses at (refractive index of water \(=\frac{4}{3}\) )

  1. A \(16 \mathrm{~cm}\) above water level
  2. B \(9 \mathrm{~cm}\) above water level
  3. C \(16 \mathrm{~cm}\) below water level
  4. D \(9 \mathrm{~cm}\) below water level
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(9 \mathrm{~cm}\) above water level

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Sun at infinity, \(u=\infty\) Focussed at a height, \(\mathrm{v}=-32 \mathrm{~cm}\) Refractive index of water, \(\mu_{\mathrm{w}}=\frac{4}{3}\) From the mirror formula…
