Light goes from Medium 1 into Medium 2. Medium 2 has a greater index of refraction than Medium 1. What is true?

A- Medium 2 is more dense so the light bends away from the normal (larger angle).

B- Medium 2 is more dense so the light bends toward the normal (smaller angle).

C- Medium 2 is less dense so the light bends toward the normal (smaller angle).

D- Medium 2 is less dense so the light bends away from the normal (larger angle).
