Snell’s law is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.
i;e sini/sini=n
were n is known as refractive index
2bii)
given refractive index of glass =1.5
i;e a N g =1.5 (from air to glass)
