Answer
For Class 10 students, Snell's Law can be understood simply: when light travels from one material to another (like from air to water), it changes direction. The amount it bends depends on how different the two materials are. The formula n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂ helps us calculate exactly how much the light will bend. Think of it like a car moving from pavement onto sand it slows down and changes direction.
