Question
Higher Order Thinking Skills.
When a ray of light passes from air into glass, is the angle of refraction greater than or less than the angle of incidence?
Solution
When a ray of light travels from rare (air) medium to dense [glass] medium, light ray moves towards the normal.
∴ Angle of refraction < Angle of incidence.
