β
Correct Answer: (D)
1, 2 & 3
Explanation: Refraction is a phenomenon of light, sound wave, water wave by which the direction of a wave changed while passing from one medium to another. Some of the examples of refraction are Mirage, appearing of raised coin in a trough filled with water, bent pencil in glass of water, rainbow, dispersion of light sunset, etc.
