Hey here is ur answer
In physics refraction is the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another or from a gradual change in the medium. Refraction of
light is the most commonly observed phenomenon, but other waves such as sound waves and water waves also experience refraction
Two laws
- The incident ray, reflected ray and the normal, to the interface of any twogiven mediums; all lie in the same plane.
- The ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence and sine of the angle of refraction is constant.

★ Retraction of light :-
The phenomenon of bending of light rays when in it travelled from a rarer to denser medium is called refraction.
★ The laws of Refraction are as following:-
- The incident ray, the refracted ray or the normal at the point of incidence all lie in the same plane.
- The ratio of sine of angle of incidence to sine of angle of refraction is constant for any two given pair of media.
The 2 nd law of refraction is also known as Snell's law of refraction.
It can be written as following :-
★
where n21 is refractive index of medium second with respect to medium first .
