$A$ rectangular glass block is placed on a mark made on the surface of a table and is viewed from a vertical direction. If the refractive index of the glass is $\mu$ and its thickness is $d$,by what distance will the mark appear to be raised?

  • A
    $\frac{(\mu + 1)d}{\mu}$
  • B
    $\frac{(\mu - 1)d}{\mu}$
  • C
    $\frac{(\mu + 1)}{\mu d}$
  • D
    $\frac{(\mu - 1)\mu}{d}$
