Draw a ray diagram showing the path of rays of light when it enters with oblique incidence (i) from air into water , (ii) from water into air.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In going from air into water, the oblique ray of light bends towards normal as shown in Fig. Note that` /_r lt /_i`.
In going from water into air, the oblique ray of light bends away from normal as shown in Fig. Note that `/_r gt /_i`.
