We can make it travel through glass
- We can make a ray of light bend toward the normal by making it travel from air into glass. When light passes from a less dense medium (air) to a denser medium (glass), it slows down and bends towards the normal line.
- We can also make a ray of light bend toward the normal by making it travel through water. Similar to the air-glass scenario, when light passes from a less dense medium (air) to a denser medium (water), it slows down and bends towards the normal line.
- Another way to make a ray of light bend toward the normal is by making it travel from glass into air. In this case, as light passes from a denser medium (glass) to a less dense medium (air), it speeds up and bends towards the normal line.
- Lastly, if the ray of light travels through glass, it will experience refraction multiple times as it interacts with the boundaries of the glass, causing it to bend towards the normal at each interface.
