Depends on the colour of the light, but with general white light, which is made up of many colours, the blue block absorbs all colours in the white light, apart from blue, which is reflected off the block into our eye, which is why the blue block appears blue to our eyes.

What happens to the direction of a light ray as it moves from air into Perspex?

what happens is the light is refracted or bent to the normal as in the other surface the line is refracted away from the normal refracted light coming out of the perspex block is parallel to the incident light refraction is caused as the light hits the block from a different angle lets say 25 degrees the particles are normally all lined up and go the same speed but as it hots the block from a different angle one particle will hit first the block and then the next and so on making each particle separate causing it to bend.


What happens when light hits a blue surface?

Depending on the range of wavelengths that comprise the incident light, some of it may be absorbed and some may be reflected. If blue wavelengths are present in the incident light, then the blue is mostly reflected, and any other wavelengths are mostly absorbed. This is the main reason that the surface acquires the reputation of being 'blue'.
