As light rays pass from air into a glass prism, are they refracted towards or away from the normal?
As light rays pass from the air into a glass prism, they are refracted towards the normal as glass is denser than air.
Explanation
In a glass prism, when a beam of white light enters, it bends towards the normal, as it is going from a rarer medium (air) to a denser medium (glass). Whereas when it leaves the prism, it bends away from the normal, as it is going from a denser medium (glass) to a rarer medium (air).
