### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Situation**: A ray of light is incident normally on a glass slab. "Normally" means that the ray strikes the surface at a right angle (90 degrees) to the surface. 2. **Drawing the Diagram**: - Draw a horizontal line to represent the glass slab. - Draw a vertical line (perpendicular) to the slab to represent the normal line. - Draw the incident ray coming from above and striking the glass slab at the normal line. ...
