Question

Read the given statement and mark the correct option.
Statement 1: If the refractive index of one medium is equal to the refractive index of the second medium, then the beam does not bend at all.
Statement 2: The bending of light depends on the refractive indices of two media.

Only statement 1 is correct

Both the statements are correct

Statement 1 is correct but statement 2 is incorrect

Statement 2 is correct but statement 1 is incorrect​

Answer 1

Answer:

Both the statements are correct

Answer 2

Answer:

Both the statements are correct.

Explanation:

If the refractive index of two medium is same then light wave will travel in a straight line without bending.

According to Snell's law,

n1sinθ1 = n2sinθ2

n1=n2

θ1=θ2

So we can see that the bending of light will depend upon the refractive index of medium.
