A ray of light travelling in air enters obliquely into water. Does the light ray bend towards or away from the normal? Why? Draw a ray diagram to show the refraction of light in this situation.

Light bends towards the normal because water is denser than air.
The ray bends towards the normal because it has to travel with a lesser speed in water but with shorter time.
