Question
The refractive index of material A is 1.4, and another material B is 2.4. Which one will bend the light more?
- A
- B
- Both A and B bend by the same amount
- They do not bend the light at all
Hint:
Denser medium bends light more.
The correct answer is: B
The correct answer is b)B . B will bend the light more as it's refractive index is 2.4 which is more than material A. More refractive index indicates to the fact the material B is more dense than material B. For material B the ray will bend more towards the normal than material A.
