Everybody knows change in speed of light causes to bend light. But why does light bends towards normal when passing from rarer to denser and vice versa?
Yes,It bends when traveling from 1 media to another.
the light bends
Light bends because of the difference of speed in each medium.
It is called "refraction".
The light ray bends when it enters a medium with different density. It either bends towards or away from the normal depending on whether the medium is more dense or less dense.
Yes,It bends when traveling from 1 media to another.

Refraction, which is the bending of light
When light is Refracted it bends when it travels from one medium to another
It is called "refraction".
Yes, Light bends towards the normal when it travels from air to another medium and bends away when going into air from another medium. This can be affected by the angle of incidence and what angle it is.
Index of Refraction
gamma
When light traveling at an angle passes from one material into another, it undergoes refraction. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another, due to the change in the speed of light. The degree to which the light bends depends on the angle of incidence and the refractive indices of the materials involved.
Because of the refraction of light. Light bends when it passes from one medium to another, this bending is called refraction not to be confused with reflection.
It bends.
