this stone is viewed by an man at an angle then what will be the apparent depth ( h ) of this stone from water surface ?
(As shown in figure) Let an Stone " O " is Placed at the bottom of swimming Pool of depth H and the refractive index index of water isIf the apparent depth can be expressed as :
then compute the value of .
Details and Assumption

are all positive integers.

Concept Used in This Question Is :
∙ Formulas for Paraxial Ray's does not hold good in this question
∙ For To Locate the image we require 2 Near by rays .
∙ Position Of Image Doesn't Change if we consider to near by rays .
Now Let horizontal distance of image from Pole "P" is y
So y − x = c o n s t a n t .
Now Let Two rays of angle of incidence i & i + d i .
Now stablished relation between them ( by using snell's Law )
and use d i d ( y − x ) = 0 .
so we get
h = μ H 2 1 ( cos θ ) 3 ( H 2 + x 2 ) 2 3 .
NOTE:
Apparent depth will be maximum when we see Normally in swimming Pool.
Since θ = 0
