well kids, the answer is INDEX OF REFRACTION. (: science question on my homework
atomic packing
It's called refraction, and the amount of bending is determined by the index of refraction.
It's (the speed of light in vacuum)/(the speed of light in the material) .
It's (the speed of light in vacuum)/(the speed of light in the material) .
The ray of light bends towards the normal.
true
Light travels faster in liquid material with a higher index or reflection.
Index Of Refraction
Also 1.5. That's how the index of refraction is defined.
It will usually change. Usually you would expect the speed to decrease, but note that the "optical density", i.e. the index of refraction, is not entirely related to the density (as defined by mass/volume).

atomic packing
A medium with a higher index of refraction, like diamond, is more dense than the medium with a lower index of refraction, like air. If the ray of light is moving from the less dense medium (lower index of refraction), to a more dense (higher index of refraction) the ray of light bends TOWARDS the normal.
n(index of refraction) = c(speed of light in a vacuum)/v(speed of material in the sebstance)
true
