प्रश्न
Draw a diagram showing the refraction of a light ray from water to glass. Label on it the incident ray, the angle of incidence (/), and the angle of refraction (r)

उत्तर
Water is rarer than glass.
Light travels from water to glass mean light travels from a rarer to a denser medium.
The incident ray is AO.
Angle of incidence is ∠i
Angle of refraction is ∠r

We can see the sun even when it is little below the horizon because of ______.
Write scientific reason.

State whether true or false. If false, correct the statement.
The angle of deviation depends on the refractive index of the glass.
Assertion and reasoning type
- Assertion: If the refractive index of the medium is high (denser medium) the velocity of the light in that medium will be small
- Reason: Refractive index of the medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of the light
