Refractive Index Real and Apparent Depth: Calculation of Apparent Displacement

in this video, the formula for refractive index is used to calculate an apparent displacement an Ant as viewed from above a slab. I also explore the fascinating concepts of refractive index, real depth, and apparent depth in optics. We'll explain how light changes direction and speed when it passes from one medium to another, affecting the way objects appear underwater or through lenses. Using visual demonstrations and practical examples, we'll illustrate the principles of Snell's Law and how it governs refraction. You'll learn about the relationship between real depth, apparent depth, and refractive index, and how to calculate these values in different situations. Whether you're a student studying optics, a photographer interested in lenses, or simply curious about the behavior of light, this video will provide a clear understanding of these optical phenomena and their applications in everyday life.
