1. Consider a light ray that transitions from a material with a higher index of refraction to a material with a lower index of refraction. a. Does this ray speed up or slow down? b. Does it bend toward the normal line or away from the normal line? (i.e. is 0₁ > 0₂ or 0₂ > 0₁?) 2. Do you get total internal reflection when the index of refraction for the second material is larger than the index of refraction for the first material or when it is smaller? (i.e. Do you need n₂>n₁ or n₂
