Abeam of light traveling in air strikes a glass slab at an angle of incidence less than 90°. after entering the glass slab, what does the beam of light do? (there could be more than one correct choice.)
a. i follows the same path as before it struck the glass.
b. it bends closer to the normal at the point of contact.
c. it follows the normal to the glass slab.
d. it bends away from the normal at the point of contact.
e. it slows down.

True A and B

Explanation:

Let's propose the solution of the exercise before seeing the affirmations.

We use the law of refraction

      n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂. Sin θ₂

Where n₁ and n₂ are the refractive indices of the two means, θ₁ and θ₂ are the angles of incidence and refraction, respectively

      sin θ₂ = (n1 / n2) sin θ₁

Let's apply this equation to the case presented. The index of refraction and airs is 1 (n1 = 1)

     Sin θ₂ = (1 / n2) sin θ₁

 the angle  θ₂ which is the  refracted angle is less than the incident angle

Let's analyze the statements time

A. False. We saw that it deviates

B. True Approaches normal (vertical axis)

C. False It deviates, but it is not parallel to normal

D. False It deviates, but approaching the normal not moving away

E. True. Because its refractive index is higher than air,

one "light year" is the distance that light travels, through vacuum, in one julian year.   that's 365.25 days, of 24 hours each.
