Why refraction of a wave occurs when the wave travels from one material into another?
The change in wave speed causes refraction sinv1/v1 = sinv2/v2.
What is the change in direction of a wave when it changes speed as it travels from one material to another?
That's 'refraction'.
Why do light rays pass through a lens change direction?
If a wave of light is reflected by an opaque material, it changes direction. If it refracts (like light going from air into water), it can change direction. Also, gravity can bend light. For example, a black hole can trap light.
A lens makes the light change direction what is the change of direction called?
Scattering is an interaction of light with matter that causes light to change its energy, direction of motion, or both. so the plain answer is scattering the particles.
The bending of waves due to a change in speed is?
It is Refraction
What is it called when a wave suddenly changes directions it passes from one material to on other?
Refraction phenomenon Typically, the change in wave speed in the material causes the change in direction.

How does refraction change light?
What is Refraction?? What is Refraction??
Light waves change speed and directions when they pass from one transparent material into another This is called?
refraction
A lens makes the light change direction what is the change of direction called?
Scattering is an interaction of light with matter that causes light to change its energy, direction of motion, or both. so the plain answer is scattering the particles.
The bending of waves due to a change in speed is?
It is Refraction
What is phase change in light of wavelength 600-NM incident in a material with index of refraction n equals 1.38 when it reflects from a material with index of refraction n equals 1.40?
When a light ray is incident on a boundary of greater density than the current medium, the reflected ray undergoes a 180 degree phase change
When fuel is burnt does its mass change?
Yes the Mass does change because the Material is oxidised. So if something is added to the material therefore the mass increases
What is changed to cause refraction?
Refraction is a change in direction of a wave due to a change in its transmission medium.
What is the meaning of reflection and refraction?
Reflection is a change of the angle of light without a change of medium. Refraction is a change of the angle of light with a change of medium.
