You may have noticed that I'm not all there myself. Alice drank a suspicious potion labelled "Drink me," causing her to shrink. She fell into a 15.0 [cm]-radius spherical bowl of water that has an index of refraction of 1.33. The Cheshire cat hovered towards Alice until its nose is 10.0 [cm] from the surface of the bowl, shaking its head at Alice's poor life decisions but grinning nonetheless. The light from the cat's mischievous grin is refracted by the air-water boundary to form an image. What is the image distance of the Cheshire cat's grin? Neglect any effect of the bowl's thin glass wall.

A beam of white light is incident on the surface of a diamond at an angle θa�a.(Figure 1) Since the index of refraction depends on the light's wavelength, the different colors that comprise white light will spread out as they pass through the diamond. The indices of refraction in diamond are nred=2.410�red=2.410 for red light and nblue=2.450�blue=2.450 for blue light. The surrounding air has nair=1.000�air=1.000. Note that the angles in the figure are not to scale.
