A microscope focussed on a pin lying at the bottom of a beaker reads 3.965 cm. When a liquid is poured up to a height of 2.537 cm into the beaker, the microscope focussed again on the pin reads 3.348 cm. Find the refractive index of the liquid.

A beaker is filled with a liquid to a height of 14 cm. The apparent depth of a needle fixed at the bottom of the beaker is measured to be 10 cm by a microscope. What is the refractive index of the liquid? The height of the liquid in the beaker is now raised to 21 cm. By what distance would the microscope have to be moved to focus on the needle again?
