Light slows down and changes direction, determined by the index of refraction.
Magnifying lenses bend lots of light rays towards a single point making the object appear larger.

A lens is a transparent object that forms images by?
It refracts light!:)
How do objects bend light?
The object refracts the light, because of the bending of light or waves as it passes from the material to another.
What term indicates any curved and transparent object that refracts or bends light?
A lens.
What is refract the light?
If something refracts light it bends it.
Does the microscope refract or reflect light?
It refracts light
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.
A lens is a transparent object that forms images by?
It refracts light!:)
When does light change directions?
when it hits an object
What happens when light passes through lens?
The light refracts or bend .
What happens to light when it passes through different substances?
it refracts
What happens to light when it hits a different medium?
The light reflects or refracts on hitting the medium.

if you are using A+ it is lens

What part of your eye refracts light?
The retina which is where the image from the eye lens is focused. The retina is the reflective part of the eye. That's why cat's eye reflect so well, their retina are more exposed in the night because their pupils (or whatever they are in a cat) open wider than ours exposing more of that mirror at the back, the retina. Meeow!
What happens when light passes into a material where the speed of light is faster?
-- Its speed increases. -- Its wavelength increases. -- It refracts away from the normal to the interface at the point of incidence.
