Question

When a light ray travels from air to water, it bends ____ the normal.

  1. Towards 
  2. Away from
  3. Along 
  4. Opposite 

hintHint:

  • When a ray of light passes from a rarer to denser medium it bends towards the normal.

The correct answer is: Towards


    • When a ray of light passes from a rarer to denser medium it bends towards the normal.
    • We Know air is rarer and water is denser. 
    • So it bends towards the normal.
