Answer of the question as follows. 

 

Step-by-step explanation

Solution:

Girno . Actual depth h= 2m . Appearnt depth b'= ? solution : Firstly we knowo the retroactive index of water is 4 . For a > We know the condition, when observer in bases modium a object in denser medium then Formula Fer Refractive index is Real depth = Uld = R.J Denser appesent depth ya R. I Racer la = 1. Refractive index For aid Ud = Ulw = 4/2 R. J of water Here actual depth h= p= am (Real depth) :. Uws Real depth = P APP, depth =) 41 = P = 2 8 6 = 1.5 4 / 2 h' = 1 .5 m hi = 15 -: The ground level be appear at to be 1.5 m deep

6] water filled halfway ie Read depth P will change by 2m = Im 2 -. Now p = Im Again we use same to emula Un = Real depth = P app. depth =)h= P = 3 = 0. 75 m 4/ 3 4 h' = 075 m - 1 h = 0.75 The appesent depth of pool to be ofsm.

  In  given problem mentioned that depth of pool is 2m and water fully filled , that is depth pool is the real depth( p) of water and is equal to 2m. 

Now in question b clearly mentioned the the water halfway filled i.e real depth (p)  of water is  change by 2m/2 = 1m.
