Question 16
F

A ray of light travels from glass into air. The ray meets the boundary at an angle to the normal.

Which statement describes the ray in the air?

[1]
A

It bends towards the normal, so the angle in air is smaller

B

It does not bend, so the angle in air is the same as in glass

C

It bends away from the normal, so the angle in air is larger

D

It bends away from the normal, so the angle in air is smaller
