What is Refracted Wavefront?
Refracted Wavefront is the bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves.
What can happen through a change in speed or direction?
velocity can happen
What effect does a plane mirror have on the speed of light?
A mirror has no effect on the speed of light, but it has a radical effect on thevelocity of the wavefront, because it reverses the direction of the normalcomponent of the velocity.
What are the kinds of motion according to the change in direction and change in speed?
Acceleration is a change in speed or direction. Velocity is the speed and direction. ex. 41 mph northeast
What will happen when you exert force on an object that is in motion?
Its speed, or direction, or both, change. That's called "acceleration".

What is the bending of a wavefront as the wavefront passes between two substances in which the speed of the wave differs?
refraction
What is a change in velocity or direction?
Any change in speed or direction is a change in velocity. That's an acceleration,and it directly implies the presence of force, since it can't happen without force.

What must happen for an obect at rest to move or change its speed?
A force must be applied to that object according to Newton's First Law of Motion in order to change the speed and its direction.
Why does a change of speed produce a change in direction?
It doesn't. For example, you can go in a straight line, and speed up or slow down, without changing direction. And if there is both a change in direction and a change in speed, the change of speed wouldn't be the CAUSE for a change in direction. (On the other hand, both can be caused by a force applied to an object.)
Higher speeds require more space for a maneuver?
Yes, at high speed it takes longer to change your direction, for example.Yes, at high speed it takes longer to change your direction, for example.Yes, at high speed it takes longer to change your direction, for example.Yes, at high speed it takes longer to change your direction, for example.
How is acceleration related to the change in speed?
A change in speed (and/or direction) is acceleration.
Velocity is the change of speed andor direction of an object?
Not exactly. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object's motion.If either speed or direction changes, then the change is the object's 'acceleration'.
