A pool of water appears to be 1.00m deep when viewed vertically from above. What is the actual depth of the pool?
[Refractive index of water = 1.33]
A
13.300m
B
0.750m
C
1.013m
D
1.330m
Verified Correct Answer: D.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
n = \(\frac{\text {Read depth}}{\text{Apparent depth}}\) = 1.33 = \(\frac{Rd}{1}\)
Rd = 1.33 x 1 = 1.330m
