What is a bending that occurs when a wave moves from one medium to another at an angle and changes speed?
When a toy car travels from a plain floor to the grass lawn we see that it deflects.Similarly light too bends when it changes its medium.This bending can be seen at the boundary of the two mediums that separates them.
What does light bend when it passes from air into glass?
refraction
What is it called when a wave goes from one medium to another and it changes speed and direction?
The change in direction is called refraction.
Why does a pencil looks broken when seen from the side of drinking glass with water?
As water is a denser medium compared to air refraction occurs. Refraction causes the light to be bent before reaching our eyes. Hence, pencil looks broken.
The bending of waves due to a change in speed is?
It is Refraction
What is seectrum?
spectrum? A band of colors, as seen in a rainbow, produced by separation of the components of light by their different degrees of refraction according to wavelength.
