The index of refraction is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the material it is passing through.

So the answer would be: Light bends more, and there is greater refraction.

Answer: B. Light bends more, and there is greater refraction.

Explanation:

Refraction is the bending of light when it moves from one medium into another. When light moves from a rarer medium to a denser medium from example from air to glass,  it travels slowly in glass and this leads to the bending of light towards the normal.

When light travels from a denser to a rarer medium for example from glass to air, the light travels faster and now bends away from the normal.

The normal is a line perpendicular to the boundary between the two substances.

What happens to the density if the volume of an object decrease and the mass remains the same?
vekshin1
The density would increase because you still have the same amount of weight, but it is just packed more tightly in a smaller object.
