Answer:The light ray will bent towards normal , because the light ray has entered from rarer medium to a denser medium,that is from air to water.

The ray of light bends towards the normal.When a ray of light enters from an optically rarer medium (having low refractive index) to an optically denser medium (having high refractive index), its speed slows down and it bends towards the normal.Since water is optically denser than air, a ray of light entering from air into water will bend towards the normal.
