This is kind of simple but i'm still a little confused.
How does light refract when it passes from air into an optically denser medium like say, glass? Does it refract futher away from the normal if the object is denser?
And if light travels from glass into air (instead of air into glass)
how will it bend in relations to the normal or the 90 degrees point?



Thanx[:)]

Light refracts TOWARDS to the normal when moving into a denser medium.
