Q.
When light is incident on a medium at angle i and refracted into a second medium at an angle r, the graph of sin i vs sinr is as shown in the graph. From this, one can conclude that
- Velocity of light in the second medium is 1.73 times the velocity of light in the I medium
Velocity of light in the I medium is 1.73 times the velocity in the II medium
Q.
Refraction is the phenomena of :
light travelling from one medium to another
bending of light while it changes its medium
Bouncing off of light when it strikes a medium
- Decrease in the intensity of light when it passes from one medium to the other
Q.

If light goes from medium A to medium B, it will bend towards the normal
If light goes from medium A to medium B, it will bend away from the normal
- If light goes from medium A to medium B its speed reduces
