Question

A ray of light bends towards the normal while travelling from medium A to medium B. which of the following statements is/are correct?
(A) Medium A is optically denser than medium B.
(B) Speed of light is more in medium A than medium B.
(C) Refractive index of medium B is more than refractive index of medium A.

A.

Both A and C

B.

A, B and C

C.

Both A and B

D.

Both B and C

Correct option is D

The Correct Ans is Option D) B&C

When a ray of light bends towards the normal while traveling from medium A to medium B, it indicates that medium B is optically denser than medium A.

Correct statements:

  •  Speed of light is more in medium A than medium B:
    This is correct because light slows down in the optically denser medium (medium B).
  •  Refractive index of medium B is more than refractive index of medium A:
    This is also correct because a higher refractive index corresponds to an optically denser medium.

Incorrect statement:

  •  Medium A is optically denser than medium B:
    This is incorrect. If light bends towards the normal, the second medium (medium B) is optically denser.
