उत्तर
Refraction is the bending of light at the surface of separation, which takes when it passes from one optical medium to another optical medium with different optical densities.

Draw diagrams to show the refraction of light from
- air to glass, and
- glass to air. In each diagram, label the incident ray, refracted ray, the angle of incidence
- and the angle of refraction (r).
In fig 4.18, name the ray which represents the correct path of light while emerging out through a glass block.
Select from the following the best set-up for tracing the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass slab:

A glass slab is placed over a page on which the word VIBGYOR is printed with each letter in its corresponding colour.
- Will the image of all the letters be in the same place?
- If not, the state which letter will be raised to the maximum. Give a reason for your answer.
State the factors on which the angle of deviation depends.
Two parallel rays of Red and Violet travelling through the air, meet the air-glass boundary as shown in the above figure. Will their paths inside the glass be parallel? Give a reason for your answer.

Consider these indices of refraction: glass: 1.52; air: 1.0003; water: 1.333. Based on the refractive indices of three materials, arrange the speed of light through them in decreasing order.
