I'm sorry, but I cannot view or analyze diagrams. However, I can certainly help explain concepts about light refraction and how to determine the path of light through different materials based on their indices of refraction.

When light passes from air (which has a lower refractive index) into another material (like glass, water, etc.) with a higher refractive index, it bends toward the normal line. Conversely, when it exits back into air, it bends away from the normal.

If you describe the diagrams or the materials involved, I could help you determine which one best represents the light's path!
