MEDIUM

A student does the experiment on tracing the path of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass slab for different angles of incidence. He can get a correct measure of the angles of incidence and angles of emergence by following the label indicated in figure.

Question Image

EASY

A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (i). He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (r) and the angle of emergence (e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be:

EASY
When a ray of light travels from a rarer medium to a denser medium, it
