Problem

A plane mirror is placed at the bottom of a tank containing a liquid of refractive index μ\mu. PP is a small object at a height hh above the mirror. An observer OO, vertically above PP and outside the liquid, sees PP and its image in the mirror. The apparent distance between them is (a) 2μh2\mu h (b) 2hμ\frac{2h}{\mu} (c) 2hμ−1\frac{2h}{\mu-1} (d) h(1+1μ)h\left(1+\frac{1}{\mu}\right)
