A glass hemisphere of radius 0.04 m and R.I. of the material 1.6 is placed centrally over a cross mark on a paper (i) with the flat face; (ii) with the curved face in contact with the paper. In each case the cross mark is viewed directly from above. The position of the images will be

Case (i) When flat face is in contact with paper.

where
= R . I . of medium in which light rays are going = 1
= R . I . of medium from which light rays are coming = 1.6
u = distance of object from curved surface = – 0.04 m
R = – 0.04 m .

i.e. the image will be formed at the same position of cross.
Case (ii) When curved face is in contact with paper


(Below the flat face)
