I'm havingahard time getting the answer to this question. I am usingSnell'slaw of refraction such that:
n1/p +n2/q =(n2-n1)/R
Where
R=12cm
n1=1.00
n2=1.60
p=either20cm,8cm, 4cm, 2cm
Here isthequestion:
One end ofalong glass rod (n = 1.60) has the shape of a convexsurfaceof radius 12.0 cm. An object is positioned in air along theaxis ofthe rod in front of the convex surface. Find the imageposition thatcorresponds to each of the following objectpositions.
