Question

Which of the following would bend the light highest?

  1. Water
  2. Air
  3. Glass
  4. All of the above

hintHint:

The medium with highest refractive index can bend the light more.

The correct answer is: Glass


    The correct answer is c)glass. The refractive index of glass is 1.52 which is the highest among all. High refractive index means the medium is denser. The more denser the medium is the more it will bend the light towards the normal and vice versa.
