उत्तर
When a ray of light travels from medium I to medium II without any change of direction, it is possible under either of the following two conditions:
(i) A ray of light is incident normally on the surface separating two media.
(ii) The refractive index of the medium I is equal to the refractive index of medium II.

One day Chetan’s mother developed a severe stomach ache all of a sudden. She was rushed to the doctor who suggested for an immediate endoscopy test and gave an estimate of expenditure for the same. Chetan immediately contacted his class teacher and shared the information with her. The class teacher arranged for the money and rushed to the hospital. On realizing that Chetan belonged to a below average income group family, even the doctor offered concession for the test fee. The test was conducted successfully.
