As light rays pass from air into a glass prism, are they refracted towards or away from the normal?

उत्तर
As light rays pass from the air into a glass prism, they are refracted towards the normal because glass is denser than air.

Make a rainbow
Try to make your own rainbow. You can try this project in the morning or in the evening. Stand with your back towards the Sun. Take a hosepipe or a water pipe used in the garden. Make a fine spray in front of you. You can see different colours of rainbow in the spray.
