    The document contains a science exam paper on the topic of light with 5 questions. It includes fill-in-the-blank questions about refraction and refractive index. Reasons are requested for why the sky appears dark in space, the sun looks reddish at dawn, and rainbows can be seen at fountains. Short notes are asked about dispersion of light and the law of refraction. An explanation of rainbow formation and solving 3 problems involving light velocity and refractive index in different materials are also included.
