Refraction
... When a light ray travels from a denser medium into a rarer medium it is refracted away from the normal. As the angle of incidence increases so does the angle of refraction. Eventually the angle i is reached that give an angle r of 90o. The angle i for which this occurs is called the critical angle. ...
