Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the phenomenon called when light bends as it passes from one medium to another? (2020)
  • Step 1: Understand that light travels in straight lines in a uniform medium.
  • Step 2: Know that a medium is a material through which light travels, like air, water, or glass.
  • Step 3: Learn that when light moves from one medium to another (like from air to water), its speed changes.
  • Step 4: Recognize that this change in speed causes the light to bend.
  • Step 5: The bending of light when it passes from one medium to another is called refraction.
