A glass sphere has radius R = 5.0cm and index of refraction 1.6. A paperweight is constructed

Question:

A glass sphere has radius R = 5.0cm and index of refraction 1.6. A paperweight is constructed by slicing through the sphere along a plane that is 2.0cm from the center of the sphere, leaving height h = 3.0cm. The paperweight is placed on a table and viewed from directly above by an observer who is distance d = 8.0cm from the table top (Figure). When viewed through the paperweight, how far away does the tabletop appear to be to the observer?
