What is the measure of how much a ray of light that bends when it enters the material?
This is called refraction.
What is it called when light bends as it passes through a material?
refracted light
What is caused when light bends as it passes through a material?
Light does not bend as it passes through a material. It bends when it passes from one material to another. This is called refraction. Light can also be dispersed, that is separated into its different colours, if it is refracted enough.
What is the light ray when it enter or exits a water air at an angle of 15 degrees with the normal?
sometimes bends towards the normal
What does a lens do to light?
It bends light.
What is the measure of how much a ray of the light bends when it enters the material?

What happens when light bends as it passes from one material to another?
it is refraction
What is a piece of clear material that bends light rays passing through it?
Glass.reflection
What is the measures of how much a ray of light bends when it enters the material?
Index of refraction
What happens when a light moves from a material with a lower index of refraction to another material with a higher index of refraction?
The ray of light bends towards the normal.
What material that permits light to pass through without refraction?
Vaccum. Even air bends light a little.
