the 2 situation when refraction would not occur are listed below.
1 When a solid body will be infront of the light ray. ex a boy standing wearing a dark shirt. Here no refraction will occur here absorption will occur
2 when the light ray will fall on a smooth polished surface, there no refraction will occur there reflection will occur. Ex a light ray falling on a mirror. Here Only reflection occurs.

Answer:

Refraction is the bending of light as it travels from one medium to another with different indices of refraction.

Explanation:

However, there are two situations in which refraction does not occur:

  • When light passes perpendicularly from one medium to another: When light crosses the boundary between two media, the angle of incidence is zero and so is the angle of refraction. The light beam goes straight through the boundary and is not diffracted.
  • When light passes from one medium to another with the same refractive index: The refractive index is a measure of how much a medium slows down light. When passing from one medium to another medium with the same refractive index, the speed of light remains unchanged and there is no curvature.

It is important to understand these two situations as they help to explain phenomena such as reflection and total internal reflection. They provide a basis for understanding the principles of optics, which have important applications in fields such as medicine, engineering, and telecommunications.
