You look into an aquarium and view a fish inside. One ray of light from the fish is shown emerging from the tank in Fig. 23-48. The apparent position of the fish is also shown (dashed ray). In the drawing, indicate the approximate position of the actual fish. Briefly justify your answer. Image FIGURE 23-48 Question 12.
