In which material do you think light rays travel faster-glass or air?
What is meant by 'refraction of light'? Draw a labelled ray diagram to show the refraction of light.
When a light ray passes from air into glass, what happens to its speed? Draw a diagram to show which way the ray of light bends.
Name the phenomenon due to which a pencil partly immersed in water and held obliquely appears to be bent at the water surface.
Explain with the help of a labelled ray diagram, why a pencil partly immersed in water appears to be bent at the water surface. State whether the bending of pencil will increase or decrease if water is replaced by another liquid which is optically more dense than water. Give reason for your answer.
