Following observations are taken from a travelling microscope to determine the refractive index of a liquid. Reading for the bottom of an empty beaker = 12.324 cm12.324\,\text{cm}. Reading for the bottom of the beaker when partially filled with the liquid = 12.802 cm12.802\,\text{cm}. Reading for the liquid surface = 13.895 cm13.895\,\text{cm}. What is the refractive index of the liquid?
