On- Tracing the path of the rays of light through a glass prism. Give the range of angle of incidence to complete this experiences accurately and successfully. Why does a light bend towards the base when it passes through a glass prism ?

When light travel from rarer medium to denser medium light bend towards the normal of the incidence light on the prism based on the incidence the light bend
Similarly when light travel from denser medium to rarer medium light bend away from the normal of the incidence
This according to Snell's law
Sina/sinb=n1/n2
Where a is the angle incidence to the normal
Where b angle of refraction to normal
n1 and n2 is the refractive index of rarer medium and denser medium respectively
