What happens when light enters a less dense medium than the original medium?
When light enters a less dense medium, its speed increases and it bends away from the normal (angle of refraction is larger than the angle of incidence). This is known as refraction.
What happens to the intensity of light when it enters a dnser medium?
There's no reason to expect that the intensity of light must necessarily change when it enters a different medium.
When light enters a different medium the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the medium's index of .?
When light enters a different medium, the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the medium's index of..........=refraction
When light enters a different medium the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the mediums index?
When light enters a different medium, the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the medium's index of..........=refraction

What happens when light enters an less dense medium at an angle?
When light enters a less dense medium at an angle, it will bend away from the normal (angle of incidence is greater than angle of refraction) due to refraction. This bending occurs because the speed of light changes as it enters a medium with a different refractive index.
What happens to the speed of light as it enters a different meduim?
It changes, in accordance with the optical density of the medium.
What happens to the speed light as it enters a different medium?
The speed of light changes as it enters a different medium due to the change in the medium's optical properties. This change causes light to either speed up or slow down depending on the medium's refractive index. The change in speed results in the phenomenon of refraction.
What happens when light enters a new medium in terms of speed?
When light enters a new medium, its speed can change. The speed of light changes depending on the optical density of the medium it is traveling through. In general, light travels more slowly in denser media such as glass or water compared to its speed in a vacuum.
When light enters a different medium the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determind by the medium's index of?
When light enters a different medium, the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the medium's index of..........=refraction
When light enters from denser medium to rare medium what happens to its phase change?
When light enters from a denser medium to a rarer medium, the phase change it experiences is a shift towards a longer wavelength, known as refraction. This shift in phase is due to the change in the speed of light as it travels through the different mediums.
Why does light slow when it enters a medium or matter?
When light enters a medium, it interacts with the atoms of the medium, causing the light to be absorbed and re-emitted. This process introduces a delay, resulting in a slower speed of light in that medium compared to a vacuum.
