Question
What happens when light enters a glass slab from
air?Solution
When light enters a denser medium (glass) from a less dense medium (air), it bends towards the normal due to refraction. (A) It bends away from the normal: this happens when light moves from denser to less dense mediums. (B) It undergoes total internal reflection: this only occurs when light passes at certain angles.
