What is light refracted by?
Light is refracted by a discontinuity in the refractive index of the medium ... by going from one medium into another one where the speed of light is different.
What happens to light when it strikes glass?
it just gets refracted
What happens when light travels through a pair of eyeglasses?
It is refracted
What happens when light is refracted through water from air?
The light will bend as it passes through.
Why light is refracted as it moves from air into glass?
That's related to the fact that the speed of light in glass is slower than the speed of light in air.
What is happens when light is refracted by matter?
the light bends.

What happens to light when a rainbow forms?
It is refracted through raindrops.

What happens to light when its strikes an object?
The light waves can be reflected, absorbed, they can pass the object or be refracted.,
How does the speed of light in the fiber compare with the speed of light in the outer covering?
The speed of light in the fibre is greater. As a result, light moving toward the outer covering is refracted back towards the core.
What happens to light rays when they hit an object?
They are reflected or absorbed. nope.. they are Refracted
What happens to a beam of light once it hits water?
The incident ray (the incoming light) hits the water and then the speed is slowed. It is called 'Refraction'. Which is the bending of light through a translucent or transparent object.
If light waves change speed as they pass from one medium into another at an angle the light will be?
Refracting
