Textbook Question
Chapter 34, Problem 131P
A 20-mm-thick layer of water (n = 1.33) floats on a 40-mm-thick layer of carbon tetrachloride (n = 1.46) in a tank. A coin lies at the bottom of the tank. At what depth below the top water surface do you perceive the coin? (Hint: Use the result and assumptions of Problem 112 and work with a ray diagram.)

A transparent sphere of radius 10m is filled with air (n air=1.00) and then submerged underwater (n water=1.33). While you observe from the inside of the sphere, a fish appears to be 1.00m away from the sphere's surface. Ignoring any optical effect due to the material used in the sphere, what is the actual distance of the fish from the surface of the sphere for an observer in the water?
A large hall in a museum has a niche in one wall. On the floor plan, the niche appears as a semicircular indentation of radius 2.50 m. A tourist stands on the centerline of the niche, 2.00 m out from its deepest point, and whispers “Hello.” Where is the sound concentrated after reflection from the niche?
