  1. bent towards from the normal.

    Snell's law

    n1 sin(θ1) = n2 sin (θ2)

    Where n1 and n2 are the index of refraction of the two media and θ1 and θ2 is the angle the ray of light makes with the normal to the surface in the two media so when light enters a medium with higher index of refraction it will be bent toward the normal.


  2. The light is bent towards the normal.
