Question
A ball is dropped from a height of 20 m above the surface of water in a lake. The refractive index of water is 4/3. A fish inside the lake, in the line of fall of the ball, is looking at the ball. At an instant, when the ball is 12.8 m above the water surface, the fish sees the speed of ball as
Options
A.9 m/s
B.12 m/s
C.16 m/s
D.21.33 m/s
Solution
V2ball = 2 × 10 × 7.2
⇒ v = 12 m/s
Ximage of ball =
Xball
Vimage of ball = Vball = × 12 = 16 m/s
⇒ v = 12 m/s
Ximage of ball =
XballVimage of ball =
Vball = × 12 = 16 m/sCreate a free account to view solution
