The vertical distance between eye level and the ground for a certain swimmer, who is standing upright, is 1.55 m. If the swimmer is standing 2.00 m from the edge of a 2.50-m-deep swimming pool, how far from the base of the pool will the swimmer be able to see a coin that is at the bottom of the pool? The swimmer is represented by the upward directed arrow in the diagram, and the distance between the base of the pool and the coin is “d”. The index of refraction of water is 1.33. a. 1.55 m b. 0.950 m c. 1.85 m d. 2.15 m e. 1.25 m
