A thick-walled wine goblet can be considered to be a hollow glass sphere with an outer radius of 4.10 cmcm and an inner radius of 3.60 cmcm. The index of refraction of the goblet glass is 1.50. (a) A beam of parallel light rays enters the side of the empty goblet along a horizontal radius. Where, if anywhere, will an image be formed? (b) The goblet is filled with white wine (nn = 1.37). Where is the image formed?
Use the image from the previous part as the object for the second surface (the inner wall of the same side of the goblet) and find the position of the second image.
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
