47. A light ray passes through substances 1,2 , and 3 , as shown. The indices of refraction for these three substances are n1,n2\mathrm{n}_{1}, \mathrm{n}_{2}, and n3\mathrm{n}_{3}, respectively. Ray segments in 1 and 3 are parallel. From the directions of the ray, one can conclude that (A) n3n_{3} must be the same as n1n_{1} (B) n2n_{2} must be less than n1n_{1} (C) n2n_{2} must be less than n3n_{3} (D all three indices must be the same ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/diraq-contents/question-bank/question-images/496d110fbf9b/2025_11_20_b4c87f8716f7c4a9fa5bg-08.jpg)
