Q16.Region I and II are separated by a spherical surface of radius 25 cm. An object is kept in region I at a distance of 40 cm from the surface. The distance of the image from the surface is: (1) 55. 44 cm (2) 9. 52 cm (3) 18. 23 cm (4) 37. 58 cm

What This Question Tests

This question involves a direct application of the formula for refraction at a single spherical surface, requiring careful use of sign conventions for object distance, image distance, and radius of curvature.
