44. ★★ A plastic magnifying lens (n = 1.45) has a magni-
fication of 2.5 when the object-lens distance is 4.0 cm.
The lens is placed in a large container filled with water,
and its magnification is measured when the object-lens
distance is once again 4.0 cm.
(a) What is the magnification when the ambient
medium is water?
(b) Justify your answer to part (a) using the law of
refraction.
