$A$ microscope is focused on a mark on a piece of paper and then a slab of glass of thickness $3\, cm$ and refractive index $1.5$ is placed over the mark. How should the microscope be moved to get the mark in focus again?

  • A
    $2\, cm$ upward
  • B
    $4.5\, cm$ downward
  • C
    $1\, cm$ upward
  • D
    $1\, cm$ downward
