The speed of light and its wavelength decreases when it enters a new medium. The physicist Snell showed that it can vary.
Refraction is what light does when it travels from one material to another. Refraction is when the light changes direction because it is passing through one medium to another.
direction changes.
the light bends
From 1 medium to the other means that light would travel from one object to another. So, it is basically any object that the light passes through.

When light is Refracted it bends when it travels from one medium to another
Its velocity will change

direction changes.
This is also known as "refraction".
this might be refraction
the light bends
The speed of light is dependent on the medium it travels through. Light travels fastest in a vacuum than in water or air.
Yes, it travels in waves, but it doesn't need a medium.
From 1 medium to the other means that light would travel from one object to another. So, it is basically any object that the light passes through.
If the light travels faster in the second medium, then this medium is called the rarer medium.
