Question

A light ray suffers reflection and refraction at the boundary in passing from air to water. Draw a neat labelled ray diagram to show it. 

Short Note

Solution

Air is a rarer medium while water is denser than air with refractive index of 1.33. Therefore when light ray will travel from air to water it will bend towards the normal.
