An object pin is placed at the front of a circular container of water as shown in the top-view figure below. The refractive index of water is 1.3. The center of the container is marked with a x. (a) Draw a neatly labeled and somewhat correct ray diagram and determine the location of the image pin as percevied by the observer X. (b) If the refractive index of the liquid were to decrease, would X perceive the location of the image pin to move closer to them, farther from them, or remain unchanged? Please explain your reasoning.
