Summary Introduction

To review:

The characteristics of light waves before and after emerging from the glass of even thickness.

Introduction:

The property of a light waves gets altered followed by the change in medium. The direction as well as the speed of the light changes when light enters from one medium to another. This phenomenon is referred to as refraction and this is caused due to differences in the refractive index of the medium through which light travels.
